there's euro fog inserts?

oh and I thought the m-tech kit for the 128i includes the fogs? or is that only here in the states?

BSM 135i · 04-11-2009, 08:04 PM

so that's just the 135 bumper?

1ntense_Rocket · 04-11-2009, 08:44 PM

yeah, pretty much.

1ntense_Rocket · 04-11-2009, 08:45 PM

the m-tech bumper is the 135i bumper. but since i don't need to have the cold air package i can put euro foglight inserts.

1013mm · 04-11-2009, 08:46 PM

oo I see. so what are the euro fog inserts you were talking about?

1ntense_Rocket · 04-11-2009, 08:54 PM

just the black insert into the back of the bumper to replace the current non-fog set up.

Where did you get the bumper and how much did it run you if you don't mind me asking?

1ntense_Rocket · 04-12-2009, 01:18 AM

i got it from a 135i owner in Vancouver, 400 shipped xD

he switched to the performance bumper and had a mint 135i bumper lying around so i jumped on it!

Your headlights look different from other xenons - are they factory bixenons or are they an aftermarket solution?

InsaneSkippy · 04-12-2009, 09:19 AM

WOOT for Mac's! lol sorry off topic I know, but whenever I go up to Ottawa to visit the girl's family, I always stop by Mac's.

Here's my 128 with the euro fogs. They sit in a plastic assembly that just snaps into place. The bulbs of your current fogs just twist out and plug into the new lamps. Piece of cake. I have a writeup in the DIY section.

Send an email to Dan at United BMW (search in the commercial sales forum). He can get you the assemblies and the euro fogs.

ulrichd · 04-12-2009, 10:22 AM

To be more clear, the assembly I am talking about is the whole grill insert that houses the lights.

I don't mean to necro this thread, but I, along with a few others, are interested in hearing this as well.

Those in the picture are OEM. Ordered with the car on purchase.

The only real deal aftermarket lights for any 128er is the DEPO or SONAR sets. BavX does have an alternative to their LS1 upgrade that they can retrofit into DEPOs as well..

john, I'll just show you my euro fog inserts on Saturday
