Am fitting front fog light on to my 318is but have run into 2 small problems:-

1. Am missing K7 relay for front fogs. This is the only slot empty so might be is spare relay postion if 318is has one.

2. Don't have the fixing screws for the fogs.

I guess what i'm asking is can i get these items from BMW dealer or is there a easier (cheaper) source.

Can live with Ԛ£10 for the relay so that easy and fortunately my car has all the wiring coiled behind the headlights. I just don't have the bolts to attach the fogs to the car.

the screws and clips for a face lift car are less than 3 quid from the dealers as for a loom your cars should already be fitted

Hi I have been below looking for wiring but the only thing I have found is a blue plug in the engine bay below the o/s headlamp,is this the right plug?
