Foglights on an expression?

[Ben..]

Hi there, i've had a search round the forum and its appears that to install fogs into a clio , you need the lights, wiring loom and stalk switch .

ive not got fogs, but my stalk switch has the foglight switch, is there an easy way of seeing if this is connected to a wiring loom, and if not, can i just get a wiring loom, and lights.

cheers in advance.

Need the fog light holders as well, there should be a blank plug in your engine bay on the passenger side that's needed to connect the lights up, from the dashboard side of things, does your stalk have both front and rear fog light options?

Does the switch have 2 position for the fog light. 1 for front and 1 for front and rear?? I think on some expressions the loom is in there ready.

 

[Ben..]

nope, just the one setting. what will the mean then, that they'll both come on at the same time or that i need a new stalk?

bump

New stalk needed and the wiring loom possibly.

You need to have a look behind the bumper to see if the fog feeds are there already.

 

[Beef-Mc]

New stalk indeed, need one for both options.

 

[joshhatton]

one turn wont do it mate

and you find reno are bloody expesnive. 2nd hand you wont find a full kit

so ye a


"edit"

right, do the general feeling is to just not bother then,
how much would the lot cost, and if not does anyone know the diameter of the foglight holes, 'cause i thought about getting something LIKE these

and putting them in there, connected to a switch by my headlight adjuster

Cost me £50 for the lights and loom and £25 for the stalk, all fitted by myself, improved the front end no end.

 

[joshhatton]

i paid 80 for mine fitted by someone as i didnt wanna touch reno elecs lol

 

[Ben..]

think thats wat il do then , anyone selling??
dont think im gonna be touching the french electrics after mym previous experinece!
plus i think about 65 would be a good price, but at the end of the day, it looks good

 

[Ben..]

Right i know this is an ooold thread now ,
but ive had a look and i have the wiring loom already (in that there is the wiring plug clipped behind the LH side foglamp cover)

so what will i need to complete the kit (if i only wanted front fogs?)

cheers

anyonne?

 

[davebem]

You will need the light stalk with the fog light switch on and possibly an extra fuse in the fusebox.

 

[Jordi17]

Any chance of fitting them just for looks? Or do they have to work, how would they turn on in an expression?

 

[Armani]

You have same as me the wiring on one side but you still need the loom that runs from there to the fog lights,mounting brackets,fog light stalk..

As far as im aware front fogs are not a mot test requirement so even if fitted but not working front fogs wont be tested,back fog light is on mot test.

you need to have the higher spec UCH to run them. my expression was wired for them behind the bumper BUT the UCH didnt support it, so they didnt work. i ended up just fitting the lights, not like i use them anyway.

if your uch supports you need....
Stalk with front fog function (ive just sold one on ebay for £1.25 lol)
wiring that runs from the connector behind bumper to both lamps
2x fog lights with mounting brackets
