Dude, they don't fit '86's because of the different offset. Better send 'em to me.

They were listed at $200 but I knew they wouldn't last. No I need to figure how I'm going to wire them.

The problem is my current US spec fog lights are 3 years old and only have 3,000 miles on them so they are pretty much new with no chips/nicks.

Anyone interested?

Very nice steal. I purshased some foglight trim from the same seller. Saved myself quite some money. (little bit more than 1/2 off retail) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWN:IT&ih=005

I will be hooking my euros up this way: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWN:IT&ih=003
I purshased an OEM foglight switch from Lart for a clean install.

What would a set of fogs go for these days? I have no clue.

I saw the trim, I was going to get them if nobody else did.

I also want to use a fog light switch. Let me now how that wiring kit is as I might do the same.

I need to raise the car and get underneath to remove the fogs right?

Why not let a EU Rennlister get a real switch (the markings are slightly different).

I will write a DIY when I do my install. Will in be about 4 weeks.
You don't have to raise the car to remove the foglights.

After I posted that link I realized you had already posted to that thread and are aware of it. Not sure if that helps or not. Is there something specific your looking for on the install? I went with the Paragon kit and wired them to my low beams.

Ultimately I'd like a additional switch for them, so they can be on no matter what main beam is on. After reading that post I see that lart just connected them to the fog lights, I want to do this temporarily and have already done one side and the extra light is impressive. The wires going to the fogs look like they've been replaced so I hope they can handle the extra draw for now. What exactly does the paragon kit consist of?
