These are the ones I went for.
Simple install, with 4 bolts behind the front trim panel.

tried to take a bolt off mine behind the front but it just went round and round....cant quite make out your link for lamps..

Sorry, not very clear.
It’s from Ali Express. Store is: Nicy Autoparts Store. Item description is: LED Front Fog Light fog Lamp Cut-Line Lens for Nissan Elgrand Highway Star E51 2002-2010Angel Eye DRL Daytime Running fog Lights.

Workshop manual says they come out from the front.

I ordered some of these from the same place but Rider versions which are a 2 bolt fitment and secured from behind rather than the front!
@StevieP were you happy with the product as I was upset with mine, whoever glued mine together didn't clean their hands so on the lens its covered in greasy finger marks that look awful when they are illuminated! I would be interested to hear how yours look?!

I actually drove it somewhere … normally see loads of elgrands when driving the works van, can’t wave or flash as I would look like a nutter… but today I was in daisey…. How many elgrands did I see? Not a single one apart from the ones in the import garages in Southampton..

Richard, hi.
Sounds like you’ve got a Friday afternoon one!
I’m very happy with mine: no surplus glue; no greasy fingerprints. Very clean, well packaged item, except……. 2+ month (normal) wait for it to arrive !

Your make daisey blush …and to think it’s was all luck as she wasn’t either black or white when I went to view elgrands in a show room ..so she stood out .. I think she picked me more than I picked her as it were

That’s a bloody good idea I’ve just moved daisey away from the house .. the works van can have it instead

Ordered mine early October ‘21 & had delivery just before Christmas.
So….you may be correct. Thank You !!

Today I have received a delivery from Brian @BMR - thank you
New cabin air filter fitted. Top tip...... I always spray mine with zoflora: anti bacterial and a long lasting scent.

I have also been reviewing dash cam footage from various trips to garages etc. No problems, just being nosey as to what has been going on whilst I've not been there.

And I'm on the hunt for daytime running lights, thinking of changing the front fogs so I'll have DRLs maybe as angel eyes there, maybe adding LEDs for the blanked upright section. Maybe grill LEDs. maybe ,maybe, maybe

Aliexpress keep showing me red and blue flashing ones..

 

[cjholding]

There are a couple of options to fog light replacements, you don't have to go angel eye. Four bolt fog lights are common across a lot of Nissan models, including Navara.

Also for E52 there are sequential indicator/running lights on Amazon.jp, I'll dig out the link.

very pretty - something similar and cheaper on aliexpress, but about 2 months delivery!

Like mine?

Similar to yours, but not the same. But yeah, I do like yours!

Its a minefield, I go to look for one thing and then I'm down the rabbit hole!
