Need Help / Picture

Post by Gary406 »

can some with a D8 that has front fogs fitted please somehow take a picture of it from behind it.

ive fitted my fogs. bolted on correctly but they continue to fall backwards out the bumper about 5mm.

i need to know were the spring goes as i think the spring holds it forward.

but i cant figure it out for love ne money :? :? :? :? :?

or look and explain to me please ..

I'm afraid these don't show much but without jacking the front up I can't get better access.

It must fit on top of the unit somewhere, it's a shame swiss isn't around because he retrofitted fogs to his.

ye im just looking in my haynes and it says.

unhook the light unit upper retaining spring then manoeuvre the foglight out from the bumper :?

so it does go on top and looking at my foglight here there is a little hook built onto the fogs plastic back at the top. it must hook onto that. and the reason i cant figure it out on my car is the fog must have to be out of the car to see were the spring clips to..
