Just 2 questions
Got foglamps for '08 ducato on internet but came with no brackets.
Fiat don't seem to know how they're held on.(not sold many vans with foglamps in ireland)Does anyone out there have a van with foglamps and mabey they could post pic of bracket or maybe have part number.
Second does anyone know if 16 or 17 inch steel wheels are available for this van.
Thanks.

The part No. for genuine Fog Lamps as fitted to the X250 is 51782979 & it appears from the parts diagram they are held in place with a single bolt/screw part number 15690807 as there is no bracket of any sort shown in the parts diagram. The same system seems to have been used on the 244, different fog light numbers but the retaining bolt is the same No. - 15690807

There are two different 16" steel wheels listed for the x250 & no 17"

Part No. Q17h, Q20 - 6Jx16 - 13469480080
Part No. 4WW Q17h, Q20 6Jx16 - 1359370080 - 4WD version???

There are also two different 15" steel wheels listed as well as both 15" & 16" alloy wheels.
Hope this helps
 
Thanks freespirit.
Seen the fiat parts diagram and its very hazy so was hoping to see the real thing.The lamps i bought have 3 screw holes for a bracket of some sort(may not be genuine fiat foglamps)so may have to bodge a bracket.
 
Surely fitting 16 or 17 inch wheels will affect the gearing and could exacerbate any judder issues and the speedo would require re-callibration.

I agree that 15" wheels look small but I wonder if this is because of the gearing.
 
The way to avoid recalibration is to use lower profile tyres that way the rolling circumferance remains the same.

Thats how MX5 owners get away with changing from 14 inch wheels to 16 inch wheels.

The only issues is the ride gets harder and I am not sure whether you can get that much lower profile for vans

I wanted bigger wheels to increase rolling circumference.
Engine revs would be lower whilst doing the same speed and covering the same ground.Ok speedo would be out a little but easier life for engine and better feul economy as for judder can't see a problem with that.
 
No foglamps still on shelf.
I tried making a bracket didn't work out.
I can't believe theres no fiat bracket.
 
Yes the first one is for up to 2006 model.(Lamp looks the same but bracket mounting onto bumper wont fit)
The second one is the one I bought.
The bolt out the bottom is to align the light not mount it.
