I am picking up set of used fogs and just want to make that it is plug and play. What parts do I need. Any other info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Fog lights, 2 brackets, 1 relay,1 fog light switch, (6)10 mm bolts,
2 large push pins.

One bracket with three 10 mm bolts and a push pin for each light.
The relay is inserted in a realy panel directly to the right of the fuse panel under the coin holder by your left knee. 4th slot up from bottom. as in: fuse,relay,relay,insert here

The brackets are labeld left and right hand and i found them to be buggers to figure out if you have never have done one before (simple once you know how). I may have some pics at home but will not be there until Saturday evening.


hope this helped..

I wanted to add this photo for those who found the official directions inadequate. Personally I could not make heads or tails out of the drawings of the brackets in those directions. So if you are mechanically challenged like myself perhaps this will help.

First fool with the bracket and light outside the car to see how the fog light slides onto the bracket.. When both are eventually in place the flat part of the bracket ends up being on top of the light.

Note that this fog is the drivers side. Once you orientate the bracket edge as seen in the photo and insert the push pin everything else falls into place.

A note on accessing the fog light compartment. While laying down and looking up at the under side edge of the car you will see two push pins. One at the front of the car and one further back toward the door (ignore any metal bolts you see) . Remove those two push pins and pull downwards on the undercarriage cover pulling it out of the way (no need to disconnect the entire cover) The plug for the fog light is sometimes taped to another wire loom in that area.

Robertg:

You're probably all done with this install, but this may help with some of the process, even though it's for the '02/'03 bugeye years:
