    Astra mk2 clear rear fogs

    I'm sure I've seen a pic of a mk2 with clear rear fogs (using red bulbs). I'm also sure I've read a post about them. I've done quite a few searches for replacement lenses but
    Any one any ideas or pics of what I'm talking about?
    Cheers

    Might be worth checking to see if you can get universal fit reversing lights in the same size as MK2 foglights. Then just fit your red bulbs.

    Someone used some clear reversing lenses from a trailer/caravan but they were a DIRECT replacement, just the lens was replaced.
    I've trawled all my old posts but I cant find the thread in question
    Own a Mk2 Astra? Check out Astra-Mk2.com then.

    Nice one guys. 'Gander' I'm sure your right about trailer/caravan lenses, but no joy on the web for the correct size.

    I could DIY a custom lense by cutting out the front face of the red lense then gluing in some clear perspex to the remaining (red) edge. But knowing my luck it'll look absolute pap lmao

    Oh well may the hunt continue.....

    A new idea!
    The standard front fogs for a Mk2 GTE have a clear lens about the same size as the rears.....
    Could work, yet finding a set of decsent front fog lenses at a reasonable price is going to be tricky me thinks.

    What size are the rear fogs? Would 120mm x 80mm be any good?

    erm nope, the back fogs are way smaller!

    AstraSteve23 has some Clear Rear Fogs for his MK2 Astra. He hasnt fitted them so he might just listen to some offers, I dont know. They are specially designed and a direct replacement. I'm going to his later so will tell him about this thread, he might do some piccys for you.

    Re: Astra mk2 clear rear fogs

    yeah i have genuine clear rear fogs identicle to the standard red ones! i got them off someone on mig but cant remember who, he got them off a mate who asked a local car accessories shop to search for them, so i dont have a clue where they are made, i had never seen them before, probably sourced from another country. i dont have them on my car at the mo, i would be willing to swap them for some genuine smoked ones if anyone can source some! probably just as hard to find as clear ones! i dont want any crappy standard red one that have been tinted offered to me tho! if i cant get smoked ones what would people pay for my clear ones? i dont know how to put pics up so if anyone wants any i can e-mail them!

    Nice one guys! So the illusive clear rear fogs do exsist!
    Danny the size you've put up "is good..... but it's not right" The size I've measured is 120x60x24.
    So, Astrasteve23 your the man to see by the looks of things!
