i thought i'd work on my car a bit today and i wanted to clean the fogs cos thay looked all manky and yellowy brown. once i took em off and took lens off the metal reflector inside had rusted way on one.

then to top it off i droped the glass lens and it smashed. so gutted basically.

wat fogs can i use? never owned a e30 before so any help appreciated.

Get them from GSF - less than £20 each and brand new.

thanks lads thought i got myself into deep sh#t. i thought they wer only for that specific kind of sport. i must say that this is my first european/german car and parts are a lot cheaper than old jap cars. foggys on a corolla86 coupe cost a lot.

is that 20 quid for lense or whole fog light
