foglights

Post by the1andonly » Sat Oct 26, 2013 11:12 pm

i've not factory fog lights (neither has bongo)
so bought some ring fog lights to fit the hole, looked at bongo and searched forum
still got questions
1 physical connection:
Now as to physicaly mounting them. There is no solid metal work to mount to.
Do i just drill a hole in the plastic work, hanging the assembly from the roof of the lamp orrifice or some other clamping method. the sides seem more solid

2 electrical:
I have 3 relays, hidden wiring on rhs by steering wheel include 2 plugs one with red/white wire tother with black yellow


do i need an origional switch with existing loom or how to use a 3 wire switch (iluminated as supplied with kit)
do i forget wiring loom and do it fresh

I used the ring ones on my last Bongo, they fitted fine i just made some brackets and used the small holes in each corner of the foglight hole on the bumper to fasten them on.

Ignore the red lines, but the original brackets can be seen in the middle:

The larger outer holes fit to the bumper while the smaller ones were for the screws that went into the rear of the lamp. You could just get a piece of black plastic, drill 4 holes to suit the bumper mounting points and then fit the lamp to the front.
