would this fit a HLX Bumper?

[Jay]

I recently bought a HLX Bumper for my SX100. I didnt come with the fogs though.

I saw these on ebay and wondered if the'd fit.

Cheers.

jay, ive done the same thing, my local fiat dealer does the fog lamp kit which is the mounts wiring etc but not th atcual lamps. there is someone on the bravoguide (for sale section) who sells fog lamps for £35 each as opposed to fiats £70 each!
also you'll have to buy another console bit(the bit with the buttons on it) cus you'll need a new button - fiat quote £50 though im sure if you find a good scrap yard you'll be able to nab that!
i dont know about those lights on ebay however if they do fit i think i might buy some!
hope this helps mate

Nick,
I'm going to a 'posh' scrapyard in Colindale called Metro Breakers (02082053443)to see if I can find the console switch. They quoted me £5.00 if I can find it.

I'll post on here if I do. Also, i think I need a new relay. I have seen a wire under my bumper for fog lights!!

I'm having my new HLX bumper fitted on Saturday morning so I'll go straight to the scrappy's ater thet.

Cheers,
Jay.

Where abouts are u Nick? Ask the guys on here that upgraded to Abarth etc bumpers. They must have their mounts lying around.

What spec bravo do u have. I have a SX 100 on an S plate.
