Quest for Bosch Foglight Covers

Postby MCNX BFF » 10 Sep 2009 05:48

<font color="purple"></font id="purple"><font face="Comic Sans MS">Egads!!! I know some parts are harder to find than others, but I need a little help on this one. Does anyone know where I can get my hands on a set of the foglight covers for my Spider? These have proven to be quite elusive and I am thinking I would have better luck finding the Holy Grail! [B)] UGH!!
I purchased a set of "Pilot" foglights, but I am wanting the covers that are printed with BOSCH only. ImageThese covers, on the other hand, are very easy to come by (and cheap, too!) I guess I could live with Pilot printed on the cover--it's just not exactly what I wanted. I know: I probably shouldn't be that picky and we don't always get what we want...Eeeew! that's what I tell my daughter. I can see why she dislikes that line immensely![:D] I am grateful for any leads or info you can provide me. Thanks so much!--Monica</font id="Comic Sans MS">

Hi, Simon!
The covers in the pix are available from www.boschlightsandmore.com . (Big thanks to Frank in Virginia for this link, BTW) They run $11 Canadian a piece. I'm thinking they will have to do for me, too! [:)] --Monica

Maybe you could mask off the 'Bosch' and spray over the 'pilot' with matt black paint [:D]

<font color="teal"><font face="Comic Sans MS">Funny you mention that! I had the same thought. I mean, what's the worst that can happen? I'd be out $11-the end. I'll probably give it a go just to see how it looks. Thanks bunches for the link, Wedgwa. Dropped them a line and gave them a buzz.
Subhub Obi, looks like you have another headlock/noogie combo coming your way! [B)] [:o)] NEEDING covers vs. WANTING covers...hmmm, yah, I get those two words confused. AAMOF, for the longest time, I thought they were synonymous! Careful there, Underdog. Obi might be a bad influence on you. You may soon be a member of the headlock/noogie club, too!

The quest continues....

Ahhh. A head lock...may not be a bad thing??[;)] Just fooling with you Monica.[:)] I have Hella driving lights on mine and use them quite frequently instead of popping up the head lamps. So covers wouldn't work for me. I know all about the need vrs want thing though. My cars have grown out of such conflict. My checking acount is the usual deciding factor.[:(]
