Have a 2005 and am looking at later model 380 fog lamps

there are 2 different types 1 for the normal bumper (380 ES LS LX) and 1 for the sports bumper (SX VRX GT and series 3)

the actual light might be the same but the bumper insert is different.

Yes, I have the normal bumper - but from what I've seen the actual lights are exactly the same on all models.

I am assuming that the way/position in which the lamps are mounted within the insert is the same on both inserts, even though the inserts themselves are different and will not fit within different bumper style. But I could be wrong.

Dunno if this will help, but this is what I found from the manual:

Hmmm, so the assembly on the VRX/GT has an extra mounting bracket (#3) than the base model. But it appears the lamps are both the same.
