Cheapest place to purchase fog lamps
« on: January 14, 2011, 07:54:08 pm »
Apart from going the stealer route, can anyone recommend the best place to buy a replacement front fog lamp assembly.

Ive just had my 2nd stone impact smash my lower fog lamp lense :sad1:

dealers want nearly £57 for one :surprised:

For the whole unit? £57?

I doubt there are many places who will sell a pattern fog lamp, try GSF as they did bumpers last time I checked!

Try Euro Car parts.

If they have them, which they usually do make sure you use the discount code JAN20 for 20% off  :happy2:

....I'm afraid you'll have to pay tax (vat) to import from USA and UK Customs could delay delivery too. Sorry but that's bad news.

It should be no more than the VAT on the invoice price posted on the outside of the parcel.
