  • VR6 Foglights?

    Hi Guys,

    Does anyone know about VR6 fog lights, i thought the foglights which are part of the indicator cluster came standard on all VR6s? Mine doesnt appear to have any?

    I also want to get some crystal clear indicator clusters and dont know where i would get them from.

    If there are no fogs on there, how hard is it to put on and what would you do about the switch for the dash?

    these are the ones to get.they are very bright driving lights.most that are sold on ebay and the such are like parking lights,be careful when ordering!
    these ones replace the 2 white blanks,you will have to get the blinker seperate.its easier just to order them off the net when you order your driving lights.
    check my vpic on user name,theres a couple of photos of them there.

          I had them wired to the parkers and when you flicked the parker switch they came on.ideally you could get a vw switch that is blank(find it on ebay or such,was not released here) above the radio and wire it up to that.
          need any help,just message me.

            are you thinking of getting some aftermarket ones or some Hella like with the projectors?? just get the projector ones off ebay I reckon is good enough...then just use the blinkers you got on it

              MK3 in Australia didn’t come with a fog light option, however the car has all the wiring in it. What you need is a Euro switch, which is a switch that allows you to turn on your fogs (front first step and rear second step), looks just like the one found in your mk3. they go around 100AUD, you need a wiring loon to run the wire from the engine bay to the fog lights, you could make one your self of buy it, a 12V relay that goes in the fuse box and of cores the foglights. All up the installation should take about 2hr, not very difficult. Try to get better fogs, brands like JOM and FK.

                JOM dont make them anymore , VOTEX are the only ppl that sell those ones now.they are bright as they have a H3 halogen bulb,and when you turn them on,the light fills both of those blanks,not like your singular spotlight DUBING.good idea with the EURO switch though!

                    the ones on ebay are good,a bit like yours.but GOING_FAST,ebay seller,tend to add % on the end of the sale for paypal/overseas sales,take care with them.
                    as for those other ones,VIVID,they are the ones sold all over ebay and are not fog/driving lights,check the globe that is used!!
                    the reason I know about all this stuff is,mk3vr6 wanted a set like my old vr6 and I looked around for him.I suggested JOM or FK first,but when I checked them,they dont sell those 911 style ones anymore!!!only VOTEX sell em!

                        I have a set of fog lights available for sale. They replace the larger reflector with the fog light and a smaller reflector and look pretty much the same as those on Oli's car. Iam asking $100. I have fitted fog lights to my wife's Vento using the factory switch as mentioned earlier in this thread so I can also give some advice on how to fit them.

                        PM me with your e-mail for photos if interested.

                          Mine came with rear fog as standard, and from what I've been told, all you have to do is to find the wiring in the engine bay, hook it up to the fogs you put in and the headlight switch will turn them on as well... Just pull the switch out when you're on full lights..

                            There is a two stage switch that you can get. All golfs came with rear fog lights as standard at least the vr6's anyway that I know of. I'm still trying to find fogs

                            Looking at Ebay everyday don't know if I will find the riight ones for what I want before the Nationals
                            I'm soo euro even my missus is shaved...

                              Bora Sport's fogs look to be the real deal.

                              I went fiddling with my ride and sure enough it has rear foglights... although only one of them.

                              One of my front reflectors fell out the other day, so new fogs could be the go. Or maybe some air intakes from TM tuning. Hmmmmm.
