6N 16v Fogs Wanted.......Where other than VW

Post by sc00byd00byd00 »

I'm after some replacement 16v Fogs for my car to fit when I fit my new front bumper.

Other than VW's £120 each, does anybody do then any cheaper ?

^^ They are a very rare find lol so you'd be seriously lucky if you find a set on ebay, forums and scrappys etc, which haven't been snatched already!

8v fogs are even more rare. You hardly ever see them.

I'm after a set.. and not that many people knew they did a polo with 8v fogs. =)

ebay mate :)

They are not the original 16v version which are square, they are idential with circle lights instead, thats what I am currently wiring to my smoothed 16v bumper, work like a charm (think they are spots instead but they will do the same job in fog).

Heres a link: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VOLKSWAGEN-POLO-6 ... 240%3A1318

They are manually adjustable (in terms of angle) with a m3/m4 hex tool, bloody bright too, had fun irratating people in the work shop, highly recommend.

As for wiring it shouldnt be hard to wire them, I bought a switch, some cable and you can crimp the cable onto the fogs or solder it and heat shrink... thats your call, not much work. Think you will need to wire them to your rears by law, but I havent looked that far yet as I'm doing alot of things at once at the moment.

An option I guess. wouldn't mind seeing a picture of yours once its done if you wont mine before I buy them

Sure no prob, providing the weahter keeps good I'll show them off soon as my smoothed bumperis back and on, it should be complete next week. I personally think they look better but each to there own.
