Front fogs retrofit?

Just got a pure from a cancelled order but it doesn't have front fogs which I would like to add as think it finishes the look of the car.
Does anyone know if they can be added. My dealer doesn't thinkso but is not too sure.
Any help much appreciated

Tried that but couldn't seems to get a thread with a definitive answer..either comes back with no thread or so many I end up spending an hour trawling thru them. Was hoping as more and more Evoques come onto the roads, someone might know( though I've yet to see one where I am).

Sounds like the use of front fogs are so restrictive you'd be as well just fixing them on the car without wiring them in!

However, I can't see a definitive answer on fitting them from the link above.

RE: Front fogs retrofit?

thanks for the help but think IKM is right, fitting them would be cosmetic only as doing a google search comes up with nothing also. Then again, it's the cosmetic aspect I'm looking at...then again, need to get my car first Smile

Just bolting them in place without wiring them up would be fine for the first 3 years. But would fail a MOT, as all lights fitted have to work.
Liking the ideal. As was said, how many times do we use fog lights Smile

RE: Front fogs retrofit?

The fogs are worth wiring up if like me you have halogen not xenons. The lights are fine but switching on the fogs on unlit country roads really illuminates the sides of the car. I've never known fog lights to be this effective and it certainly aids manoeuvring in the dark.
