Wayne, I haven't tried VW, because they will probably charge like 10 quid for each clip?  :laugh:

Joe, I got Tigerseal, but I don't want to permanentely fix the fogs...What if I need to take them off? The "thingy" on the last pic looks like the best option for me, but emmmm...what is it called?   :embarassed:

Trust me they will never be £10 from VW, I would guess a max of £1 each.

Well on ebay they're called 'Spire Nuts'

I suggested them at the bottom of page 7, which was 9 days ago :rolleyes:

Ok, Wayne, will try my luck with VW tomorrow.

Joe, at that time I thought I'd be able to find the "real" clips. Thanks anyway :)

Without starting a new thread, I thought I would ask here.

I got the fogs fitted, but the nearside one simply doesn't want to go in properly. Even when it does, it kind of pops out, when I put the reflector in. However, the offside one is perfect.

Nearside



Offside



So am I "handless", or it's a problem with a bumper? Fogs totally original, untouched and all the clips are present.

Actually, the problem is in the nearside fog, which doesn't sit properly, since why the reflector can't hold it in place.

As you can see, offside is ok.

looks like its not fitted right mate tbh

but the gap on the other siude looks big too, but if your happy thats cool

you must have located the clip wrong on the dodgey side?

or you have a damaged bumper, get a pic up of it without the fog light etc in place so we can see whats going on
