Removing the glass from the fogs

[Nuvo]

Both, one side, housing and glass is one part.

Do I understand you correctly? Are you saying the the left and right lamp assy's are interchangable? The housing is the same part for each side, fog lamps are sided.

[porkkis]

No you got me wrong. Left/right is different but the lamp assy includes glass and housing.

Inner parts are intechangeable between older and newer style fogs. They're completely the same parts, all except the housing.

Ah ok I understand.

Newer glass shows the lens more clearly and the glass angle is a bit different. Newer style fits with white indicators better.

Very interesting, that explains why my fogs slope back a few degrees relative to the updated white blinkers. I was planning on replacing my fogs as they are quite badly pitted, you just gave me a another valid reason

"Newer glass shows the lens more clearly and the glass angle is a bit different. Newer style fits with white indicators better"

And i thought it was just a figment of my imagination Guess thats something else to add to my puchase list

Newer glass shows the lens more clearly and the glass angle is a bit different. Newer style fits with white indicators better.

Can we get pics of the newer and older models to see if it si worth....

[Nuvo]

Skull23 the differences aren't that obvious. Only small cosmetic difference noticable only by Audi nuts (people that should get out more).

Anyway here's a pic of an old style fog with the later white indicators. I resized it to 175%.You might be able to see that the indicator sits slightly further forward relative to the fog. Then again maybe not

HTH.

i made it somehow. i had to cut the outer border of the fog to get the glass out. i am sure it wont leak with the silicone sealant i will use.



is this the older or the newer version of the glass???

this is the cut border:
