Title: Open fog grill rear part no?
Post by: parks on March 28, 2011, 04:20:28 pm
I have aquired some open fog light grills, but They came with no rear plastic clip on part?

Does anyone know if these can be ordered separately? Or even better a part number?

Thanks guys.

Should have come with it mate.
Though to be honest I think most people take them off, I have. And they are sat in the garage/storage area,

Oem indeed, no none came with them.

People rollin' without the back bits, I saw some wires behind the drivers side grill, these ok to be exposed?

It's not ideal but I've had no moisture issues with my open grilles over the years.

Just cosmetic I think. I believe they were standard in some hotter climate places though...
