You can actually retrofit some other brands on the same slot. I'll be posting a DIY on that soon

From what I can tell, my fog lights look quite different on my 06 Sport due to the front lip I'm guessing. Would I have to pull the bumper off to replace my fog lamps?

Not to sure mate, This guide should work for all prefacelift models

Never really done any work on my car so I'm a bit hesitant, but I guess I'll have to have a go

There are instructions in the Owner's Manual that show you how to replace the fog light bulbs from beneath the car. No need to remove the bumper, just need to undo the front/bottom part of the splash shield that lines the front guards.

Alternatively, if you're fairly flexible, you can actually get to them by just reaching through the front lower grille! As per the pre-facelift, you will have to unclip the plug by feel (apply pressure on the release tab on the plug and pull downwards toward the ground), then simply rotate the bulb and remove it. Takes me 5 minutes! Much less hassle than undoing the splash shield which I found was a pain in the arse.

Mate, what temp led's did you use? and also what size or type of park lights do you have?

[mikey72]

ive put the standard ones in at the moment, but the 4300k were probably the closest to the hid's. the parkers are just a standard t5 in LED arrangement.
