RV8
front foglights – an alternative source of replacement
units
As an alternative to sourcing RV8 foglight units
from MG Rover, you can go to your local Ford dealer and purchase
a replacement unit part no. F7261216 as the part was
also fitted to a 1994 model year Ford Fiesta 1.6 SI 16v. The
price for this unit in December 2003 was £37 including
UK VAT. This replacement unit from Ford comes as the lamp unit
only, so if you are replacing an existing lamp you will need
to reuse the bracket from the old unit including the rear cover
and wiring with the RV8 connecting plug. If you are converting
a Japan spec RV8 by removing the aircon intake and substituting
the fog lamp, then you will need to find those parts. Those
wishing to go “up market” can acquire the same unit
from Aston Martin, as fitted to the 1997 model V8 5.3 for £140
including UK VAT! So do remember Bryan Ditchman's advice - if
you have a broken fog lamp do not throw anything away!
