Guys, any of you have these on your car? I got a set a brake ducts made by FSH. Took a couple weeks, about 400 bucks. Quality is not great and definitely a little rough. I don't see how this will actually work with the foglights. There are no instructions.

I put the foglights in the mold and squeezed (a lot of force needed).

Just curious if anyone out there have these and how the installation/modification was done.

Thanks

They look like poor copies of the Techart ducts which use the VW Golf mkIII fogs. I have a set that are going on my car shortly - I can pop them out later but I don't believe the duct portion on mine surrounds the fog light - the fog just sits into a recess in the duct. Mine are not properly positioned/secured yet but you can see how the fog nestles against the duct:

Thanks! Yours look great. Where did you find those?

They're original Techart - I managed to find a NOS full kit still sealed in the TA box many years ago. Honestly can't remember where from or how much, but typically when I forget how much it wasn't cheap...

Ahhh lucky you. Thanks for the info, I'll see if I can make these "replicas" work somehow.

Note how the Genuine Techart lamps have a side light in them. Standard VW type lights dont

I have the same ones as OP...lots of sanding.....

I would highly recommend getting OEM hella units....yours look like reps (no hella stamping)

Funny, as soon as this thread was posted, I thought of you and was about to direct you here.


I did think you had a pair of authentic TechArts, no? Didn't you ****** a pair off eBay that we were both looking at?

Also, you should lower it.

Yo!


I was looking at a set.... think LA Dismantler had them.....just ended up going FSH thinking they would be easy peasy to play with like the other usual duct//light combo everyone runs..... If I had to do it again I would go TechArt.....

Here you can see how much the techart's differ from yours.

Did TechArt just drill the fog lights for the city light bulb? Just curious.

Possibly, I've never seen them anywhere else

Of topic, did you install the RS side skirts yourself?
