My "new" ZX is finaly sorted now and all swops - repairs completed. :)

Total cost to me was approx £500. But where can you get a car in good condition, with no known faults, fully inspected and fully serviced for anywhere near that sort of money! :)

Does anyone know where I can get a lower front panel with the recess's for fog lights? Aura or Volcane? Colour doesn't matter (I will paint it) I dont really need the lights to be working as I already have some.. Thanks..

Pics on my 'new Blue' ZX :)

Nice looker James, I think the panel you are after is the whole bumper.

James - does your car not have the cut outs "marked" on the bumper already - if so they are simple to remove by either using a hot knife or jigsaw with fine blade, I took the ones out of my reflux easily enough.
If you have the lamps and recess ass'y off your old car they wil fit straight in.

Ello nice man from the Banana Republic. :lol:

Nah my old fogs were very small, I had a right game marking the holes out for them! And unfortunately they got rather rusty anyway. Not worth re-using. :(

The car does have the cut outs marked, but I guess it depends on the size of the fog light as to whether or not they fit the marked cut out? And getting behind the bumper to get the lights into place don't look very easy?

I was hopeing to fit the lights to a new bumper off the car, with a fair lenght of wire over, then fit the bumper to the car and get my tame mech to finish the wiring for me? :-k I salvaged the front dash fog switch. :) .. And the Aura looms have the dash pre wired I think.

Does anyone make front foglights the right size especialy for the early ZX? If so, I will try to get some..

I can give the lights I have to my bro for his 94 Rover 623. :)
