Hi guys, just wanna pick your brains and ask whether any of you have fitted front fogs to an e30 that came without factory fitted fogs? are these cars hard wired for the fogs? by that i mean is the wiring present on my car? cheers

Yes, the wiring & plugs should be there; tucked up underneath the headlights.

I done this mod on saturday, very easy

remove the headlight covers under the bonnet and follow the loom to find the plugs for the fog lights on each side, they were blue on my car, pop the clips to remove the fog light blanks and pop the new foglight clips in, bolt in and connect

swap the fog light switch in the car for a double switch, pout 2 7.5a fuses in pin 29 & 30 and the fog light relay in k8

You'll need the dual fog light switch too.

Let me know if you need any of these little bits.

Cheers,
Chris
