After washing the car again today, thought I'd take the fog lights off after seeing some some discoloration through the cover. Turns out this is what 22 years of corrosion looks like!!

They still work so I had never been that bothered! Obviously I'm now looking for some new ones. Had a quick google of the part number and the only ones I can find are refurbished ones on french ebay going for 80 euros each!

Anyone know if renault still stock them or anyone who might have some spares?

Thanks, Baz

Ph1 fogs like yours are no longer available from Renault but RPD stock the ph2 items which you should be able to dismantle & fit your ph1 outer bits

I can confirm what paddy says. You can swap the lamps and keep the ph1 clear outers

Thanks guys. I've found one original one but it looks like I'll have to buy a phase 2/3 one and swap the front
