I entered 'Front Fog Lights' into the search function and it came up with these results:-

http://www.pumapeople.com/forum/index.php?act=Se...ront+fog+lights

Basically has anyone fitted after market or standard front fogs to the Puma?

If people could be so kind as to post photo's or links to kits etc etc.

Or even to go as far as to give me a procedure to doing the mod.

I have many a country road near me and as there is a river right through my town it gets foggy often. I use fog lights to prevent hitting pot holes, drains, even small animals on the edge of road!

Cheers in advance.

Hardly rushing rapids stickpoke.gif biggrin.gif but they would be useful on the back roads, I quite enjoy whizzing down from the A414 through High Wych to Stortford, nice bednies and a nice drive through there.
Del66 has the fogs on his I think, he might be of some assist but I dont think hes been round on here for a while

Theres also a webbie that sells them but I cant remember it off my head ja_cool.gif

The River Lea goes all the way to the thames wink.gif Just means some evenings and early mornings the roads that run near it get covered in fog and visibility is poor!

Can you rack your brains at all?

I've googled Puma Fog Lights but only come up with crappy ones so far.

when i fitted mine i fitted the 4 lamp set available from ring (i think) i just took the lamp set into work and cut the frame in half.

removed the bumper, sourced a fezzy front foggy switch for the dash and used the pre-wired harness that came with the light set. made life easy!

take ur time in the aligenment of the units so that they're not only effective but they dont dazzle anyone

I bought some of them lester ones from a member of this forum..

He never sent the plastic covers though and disapeared after that. I ended up flogging them on ebay and loosing quite a bit of money.

The lamps themselves look all right, but not worth the money.

You could try making some surrounds out of carbon fiber sheet (cheap on ebay) and then buying some standard Ring ones from Halfords.

Have you got any pictures at all?

The headlight + fogs (If and when fitted) will be all aligned properly at my mates garage.

I fitted these lights from ffwd on to the Puma. They are incredibly bright. They look pretty standard as well which is why I think they are worth the money. I also bought the Fiesta front fog switch as it keeps the standard look.

Yes I can put photos on probably. Not actually sure how though. Can I copy and paste from a photo program? I will put photos on tonight if someone tells me how? They look exactly like the photo in the advert only on a green r reg puma.

The wiring loom is for left hand drive Puma's I assume as it was not even close to being long enough. It had to be soldered onto extend it and get it through the bulkhead into where the fog light switch is.

I fitted high power bulbs to the Puma as well and even with them on, the fogs are able to light up more of the road. Thing is I fitted them at night last November it took five hours under an arc light in cold conditions so I did not adjust them properly. I am hoping Pumaspeed will do it oon Monday when it gets a service.

I will send my wife out right now to take some photos! I will then get her to sort it tonight. She is a teacher and knows how to use computers.

I stick to cars. Do you want photos of on or off?

Although the sun shone in Scotland yesterday, it was a bit chilly by the time I got home from work!

Hope the photo helps. I did take plenty so can add to the album thingy!

An old thread bought back to life simply because I'v not got mine fitted yet as I don't know how to wire them up.

I'm not after all the babble about driving conditions that normally goes on when talking about fogs. I just want to know about the wiring. 9.gif
