Somewhere on the motorway between N Wales and here I've been hit by a stone
I bet you can't just get the glass. Anyone know how much the lamp unit is?

Mm that's possible. Is it easy to get off?
Can bet your life a £25 lamp becomes £125 when you go to a dealer.

Kev, did you pick up a new foglight cover and install it? If so, did you do it yourself and how much hassle was it?
Or how hard were you shafted by a dealership to fit it?
Cheers

Hi Sam
I did it myself. Dead easy.
All detailed in this article
http://www.sciroccocentral.co.uk/roccop ... _Foglights " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The lamp was £49.99 from the parts dept. I just emailed them asking if they had a N/S rocco fog and they did so reserved it, picked it up and swapped it over in about 15 minutes (that included taking photos
). The hardest part is getting the black plastic slat bit off but hot water is the trick to soften it all up then pull upwards until you hear a 'click' and then slide it towards the middle of the car.

That's a top guide, thanks for that
