I'm looking for a pair of Front Fog Lights, minus the bulbs & bezels.
A 2006 Td4, manual diesel is my chariot. I'm certain all the FL1 Front Fogs are the same, but would stand corrected if someone knows better.
P&P to either Essex, or Spain.
Thanks.

Facelift fogs are the same as the Ford Mondeo MK3. The early FL1 fogs are different.

I may be wrong but I am sure that I read something about the front fogs not fitting to a td4 if it has a fuel burning heater inside the front of the passenger wing...either that or it might be a right pain to fit I can't remember, but I am sure that I read something about it.

That’s true for the pre facelift version where the fog lights are mounted low on the corners of the bumpers.

Facelift with FBH had them fitted from the factory as the mounting points are in a different place

Hi Nodge. I've just been looking on Ebay and the Mondeo Fogs certainly do resemble those of the FL1 Facelift model. And they can be cheaply bought too, especially when compared to the FL1 units.
My question is, how sure are you that the Mondeo lamps are the same as the FL1?

Very sure. As far as I know they are the same part.

I was looking at a 2nd hand pair of lamps on Ebay, and they are selling for a lot more than a NEW pair of Mondeo lamps.
Guess what I'm about to buy.
Thanks, Nodge. You've been most helpful.

Nodge, what a STAR you are! The pair of 2nd-hand Mondeo Mk3 (2000-2003) fog lamps are the biz. They are identical to my originals.
What else can I say, except THANKS.
