Looking for some help.
I bought a replacemnt set of fog lights for my QV from superperformance UK. They do not come with the chrome covers that surround the light and which is then pressed against the front bumber by the retaining bolt, in the countach or under the grill in the GT4.
Superperformance dont sell them and as they are identical to those used on the 308GT4 I tried Maranello who also dont do them.
Any ideas where to get them or similair? I was told these light units were very rare and that Eurospares were asking £125 for them. the lights cost Me £25.
Need the chrome covers or any fitting cover as mines are too corroded to use.
May be similair to that used by Fiat?
Was a standard light unit so imagine others may have these under own brand?

could you not just get your old parts re-chromed? it would probably only cost you a tenner.

Hi
no one of the parts is too corroded for rechroming. The countachs are exposed and form a moisture trap underneath so rust badly from there
Appreciate the thinking

was that for the fog/driving light orfor the whole unit with the chrome housing as well? The light units are easily avaialable form various sources and I have even seen them advertised today for about £10 ish. It's the chrome or full housing I need. doesnt matter if it's chrome or black, i just need the housing!
Let me know
Paul
