Have just invested in some fogs for my pride and joy and was wondering if the wireing loom is standard in all 318i beemers wether or not the had factory fitted fogs if they are then where would i find the wires for the fogs, or do i have to wire them stright through from the switch :?
Cheers for help

Wiring should be all there. Light connectors are propably tucked up behind the headlamps.
In addition to the lights and switch, you will need 7.5 amp fuses for positions 28 and 29, a relay for position K8, and a lamp for the warning light position in the instrument cluster.

there should be plugs lurking around the fog light area. you might need to put the fuses/relay/double switch in. and they should just work.

your loom connectors may be a bit corroded inside if they've been damp for years with no lights attached so the spares you got with may be useful! :cool:

hopefully, it'll just be a case of fitting the switch and lights... maybe a relay too...
