Hi guys

Just wondering what model foglights Evo1-3 came with? Trying to track down a pair and thought I'd make brackets in case I couldn't find any.

You can buy them but they are quite expensive. MB959735, MB959736

Could just buy the brackets:
MR245369
MR245370

And then try and find a light to mount to them.

These are off the RS from an evo 1. I believe all evos had fog lights though.

Fuck! Those lights are expensive alright....
Nearly $500 each plus freight.

Ouch! I guess I'll have to try to find some second hand ones!

 

DM me what you're after for the brackets. If they're cheaper than the new ones, I'll likely grab them. Been meaning to catch up for a while, and go to the Gong pretty regularly.

Not for sale mate. Part of my Evo hoard for a rainy day.

The brackets weren’t too expensive. I think $35 each. I’m sure you could get an aftermarket light to fit them. Or just fab up your own. Good luck and post pics :)

The big fog lamps that were dealer options are PIAA and can still be purchased, even with the white plastic covers and replacement lenses (PIAA 510 Series I think). However, the factory option had a special bracket riveted to the back of the light cover to suit the OEM support bracket.

 

I have the part number for this dealer option fog light 'kit', but I would have to dig it up.

Thanks for the comprehensive information. So the PIAA big lights were a dealer accessory, like the 16" OZ rims? And the PIAA smaller lights were a factory option?

Well, the big PIAA foggies were definitely a dealer option. For example, they aren't in CAPS/ASA (unless you have the accessories part of ASA - I don't - Mitsu may do).

 

The smaller foggies were made by Cibie and were likely to be part of an options pack when you ordered the car. These are the ones you can see on CAPS/ASA.

 

But doubtless you could still order them at the dealer later on if you so desired - they came in a box with all the wiring loom, buttons, etc (all plug and play)...at least that's how the bigger PIAA lights came packaged. 

 

**************************************

 

As far as 16" OZ rims go, I didn't ever see them listed on either the accessories catalogue, or the Ralliart Sports/Competition Parts catalogue. But of course, I can't read Japanese either, so what would I know!!!!!

 

I might dig the old catalogues up this weekend and find a Japanese person to translate  :)
