164 foglamps - brand new stock available
 
I was very surprised to learn that - after a decade or two - 164 foglamps are now available new again!

I have just ordered a pair:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...TQ:MOTORS:1123

I'll report back on quality when I get them. Cost was £68 including shipping

Thanks and well done to Steve[and his 244] who was eagle eyed and spotted them on ebay!

Look too good to be true BUT you'd better hurry. It says 4 sold out of only 6 sets available. Wonder if they'll do a remake due popular demand?

That's brilliant! I hope they're as good as they look! Many thanks for the "heads up".

I'm sure he will have made more than 6 sets Paul...that may just be what he's listed for now. Perhaps this will stop people selling NOS sets for £500? Don't worry Paul...we still have a deal!

cheers

I think they will have made a batch, but probably not a massive batch.

There is certainly a market there, but it's strictly limited in size by the number of 164s still out there, with owners who want to shell out for new fogs!

The seller told me that new moulds have been made for all the parts, so I guess that means they could easily make more batches in future if there was demand for that.

As you say, James, it should at least bring some sanity to the NOS market.
