They do appear on eBay from time to time, not as rare as MGF brackets.

However they do command a good price, and expect to pay between £30 and £60 for a pair!

The brackets are glued to the bumpar with some wonder-glue, so removing from a used bumper usually damages the brackets unless you are very patient and careful!

Usually better, and cheaper to find a used bumper with fogs already fitted.

Of course nothing to stop you fibre-glassing them into your bumper though!

Does this mean then that some later models may have the wiring in place? :-? :-? ...................I checked ebay at the time of writing this post and found 1 bracket for sale..........the bumper has 6 drillings to except screws for the bracket which ive highlighted with yellow arrows so I assume the later brackets screw on apposed to the older types being glued............................ :bust:





yeh there pricey :dry:


how much :slapme: :slapme:

There are two types of bracket for the TF - one with 6 screws and one that glues on - you need the screw on type. The eBay one you showed is the correct one.

I got most of the stuff from mgfntfbitz give them a call I'm sure they will have everything you need apart from the brackets.

I have the two fog light connectors if you need them and I have a pair of brackets as well, but they are the glue on type.You're welcome to everything for the price of postage. I can post a picture of the brackets if you like they would need a little work to bond them on.

Edit. B&G do the brackets for around £40 here's a link http://www.ukmgparts.com/product/mgf14-exterior-bodyshell-panels/tf-frt-fog-bracket-lh-622376-dpl000190

These brackets are typically an example of the potenentiality of 3D printing... Has someone ever 3d printed parts for his car?

Surely these brackets could be made out of a sheet of perspex .

I to want to fit fogs to my car just because there more pleasing to look at then black plastic covers but no way would I pay 60 quid for 2 small bits of plastic id rather fabricate some mounts .. no ones goin to see them so personally I dont think it matters as long as its up to the job , sturdy and safe

No need to pay £60 the screw in ones are £40ish at Brown and Gammons.
