    Where can I buy fog lights to fit my car. It's a 1985 318i 4 door.

    I have bulbs but not the buckets for the early US valence, not sure if they fit the euro you have.

        Like the previous post said, not sure if they would fit your car. The reason being my 84 with diving boards came with that style fogs and they were secured into the bumper. Now I believe euro bumpers stick out maybe 2 inches from the valence and diving boards are like 4+ inches. And I think the light housings are about 2 inches thick as well so... Might look weird.

          all other cars except US spec can use E30 M Tech/M3/E28 fogs. They are still available from hella at about $51 a side.

            On early US models, the fogs that mount to the DBs are different than the fogs that mount in the early i or e valences. The former (shown in the eBay listing) is a two-part reflector plus lens, the reflector has mounting hardware into the bumper - this could maybe mount to the OP's euro DB (don't even think about it) but not in the valence. The latter is a single lens/reflector that is mounted to the valence with a separate "bucket" that holds it from behind. According to the last post, the euro valence/M3/M-tech fogs are yet another variation.
