MK1 Leon Air Duct?

I am looking to take out the passenger side fog light and fit an air duct

I know people have used air ducts from places like maplins etc, but what size is a good fit for a prefacelift fog light/MK1 LC

something like this

You really want somerthing like an elbow as you need this to go back on it's self pretty quickly to get through between the radiator and the battery area.

well the cold air feed currently feeds to the bottom of the bumper, but it looks a bit untidy so I want to tuck it away, and a good flow of air would be from the fog light too, and a bit more OEM looking as well

I already have some flexi piping, so thought it would just be a case of taking out the fog light, measuring the hole, fitting the correct size ducting and fitting the flexi hose onto the back of this

ya get me?

I'd just buy a bit the same ID as your flexi, glue it onto the back of the fog light then juiblee clip the hose onto this

yeah

need to take out the fog light and measure it, unless anyone knows off the top of their head roughly how big it is?

how is the fog light removed, done it once but cant remember

is there just one screw in it which holds it in?
