Title: fog light deletes
Post by: mcibmw533 on April 02, 2012, 09:34:29 PM
I can't seem to find the fog light delete panels. I have fogs, but don't want to deal with them and the lenses are cracked. Any idea where to buy them, preferably in alpine white II? I can't find the part number on bmwfans and had no luck searching the forum.

Thanks in advance,

Micah

The illustration is misleading, but here you go:
http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E30/2-doors/Europe/318is-M42/LHD/M/1989/september/browse/vehicle_trim/grille/ Item #8:
51711979321 LH
51711979322 RH

Tischers appears to have the best price, but several vendors carry them.

Excellent, thanks.  Yes, they don't look anything like what's depicted in the illustration.

I would guess that it is actually number 9...

You're absolutely right. I must have had a senior moment...one in which I believe I don't really need glasses.
