These were available quite a while ago but the original seller is no longer doing them so myself, Jimmy France (Frenchy) and Mike Moore bought up the remaining stock of the strong ABS Plastic lenses and have also sourced the correct fixing screws and outer caps.

The only thing that needs doing to fit the covers is to make 2 small aluminium angled brackets which we have found can vary from car to car depending on the position the lights are fitted and how they sit in the bumper.

We are supplying the following :-

2 x ABS Plastic Foglight Covers (1 x Left, 1 x Right)
2 x M3 A2 Stainless Steel Hex Full Nuts
2 x M3 x 10mm Stainless Steel Screws
2 x Plastic Knurled Cap/Fastener with protective plastic washer


As you can see from the picture of one fitted to my car they look neat when fitted and fully protect the foglights from stones and other debris.

Delivered Price for a pair by Royal Mail Recorded Delivery is £47.00.

There are only 12 pairs available and there are some metal strips already made which will be included with each order until we run out (you may need to modify for your vehicle).

Any questions please ask

I have a similar set fitted to mine the paperwork for those gives manufactured in Oz. These are a good sturdy bit of kit and just give a better sense of protection over the flush flat type.

I have had made the correct metal fixing brackets and these will be with me on Tuesday morning. All sets that have been sold so far will be getting a pair of these sent in the post FOC :D

There are still a few sets left to sell, and I will be taking the remaining ones with me to Germany when we leave on Tuesday afternoon to be sold at the Porsche Festival at Dinslaken

http://www.porschefreunde-1mai.de/

If you want a set please get in touch before Tuesday so I can post them to you before we leave.

Martin, how do the far end of these protectors attach to the lamp? In your photo is hard to tell (I may be having a senior moment).

They are curved in shape and fit round the foglight. There is only one fixing for each cover.

I drove round Germany last year (1500 miles) and another 1500 miles in the UK and they never moved at all. Paul Ruddy has the same ones and again no issues.

They are a snug fit so once in place the fixing cap keeps the covers in place :)

Could I get some of the new brackets please?

I purchased some from eBay a couple of weeks ago

For anyone reading, this is a great addition to your 944 and I would recommend the outlay in favour of the fog light replacement option
