C w202 additional foglamps

[Algygale]

Hi..

I have been looking for some additional foglamps for me c200k sport.
Have found some for 20 quid each in USA but they are saying that they will be handed for lefthand drive car & point to left of rd.

I thought foglamps spread the light across whole of rd to get under fog.

Any ideas who is right?

Fog lamps are not handed and do not point either way,just a low flat beam.

Been told i can just disconnect the original wiring from the foglights in the headlights & use that to wire in the spoiler ones..

Hi Algygale,
These additional fog lights, do they fit in the apertures in the lower bumper?
If they do be careful as these are the brake cooling vents (they are on mine).

Thats where i want to place them..but the AMG has these fitted in same place so surely not for brake cooling..

Hello dont want to be spoil sport or nout but im sure they point to the side of road i only say that because i thought like u guys they gave even beam but when i got my merc i noticed they did not. maybe its just mine

They are the brake cooling vents on mine but bet they will look good

yes your right about the AMG models having lights there but they do have "different brakes" to yours and mine and the bumpers are different as its a body kit on the AMGs. They may look the same but they are "totally different"
Why design them as ducts if there not needed as ducts.
Also i don,t think you,ll have any standard wiring for these fog lights if you want an o.e.m. type fit try the russia site you "should" be able to identify the additional wiring loom(s) needed. You,ll need to identify any fixings and brackets to mount them as well because they won,t be there either.

hi
just been looking at the Russian site "i think" if your vehicle is post facelift o6/97 on then ignore my last post but if its before this date i still stand by the above post.

try this,

AMG front bumpers, note early no fogs but has cooling ducts the later model no cooling ducts with additional fogs

Ok...

Thanks for all your help. Mines a 2000...but i didn't think about the mountings for the lights. Thought they would just clip in.

Maybe i should just leave it alone.. ive noticed some people have C46 AMG estates..

Never even knew these existed..what are they all about?

C43 = V8 4.3ltr AMG There are at least 2 estates on the forum and a few of the saloons.
