Used Peugeot 406 Fog Light

The 406 ran from 1995 to 2004 and received a facelift in 1999, which brought changes to the front end including the bumper and lights, so a pre-facelift fog light (1995–1999) and a post-facelift one (1999–2004) are unlikely to be the same part. You should confirm with the breaker whether the unit from their donor car matches your registration, as this is the key boundary to check. Never assume pre- and post-facelift front-end parts interchange without verification.

For the 406, front fog lights are part of the front bumper assembly and are generally shared across body styles within the same generation and facelift period, so whether your car is a saloon, estate or coupé should not affect fitment. The facelift year of 1999 is the more important boundary to get right. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker to be sure.

Engine choice and trim level do not affect fog light fitment on the 406 — the front end is shared across petrol and diesel variants within a given facelift period. However, it is worth noting that fog lights were not always standard equipment on lower trim levels, so some cars may not have had them factory-fitted even if the bumper has the aperture for them. Confirm with the breaker that their donor car actually carried fog lights if you are unsure whether your trim level originally had them.

Your 1997 car is a pre-facelift model (1995–1999), while a 2000 car falls into the post-facelift generation (1999–2004), and the 1999 facelift brought noticeable changes to the 406's front end. Parts from either side of that facelift boundary may not interchange, so you should check this directly with the breaker, quoting both registrations. Do not assume cross-facelift fitment without confirmation.

The 406 was sold in trim levels including LX, GLX, SR, SRi and ST, but trim level does not change which fog light fits in terms of the physical unit and mounting — fitment is determined by the facelift period rather than the badge. What may differ is whether a particular trim came with fog lights as standard, so if you are sourcing a complete unit for a car that did not originally have one, the breaker's donor car should ideally be a similar specification. Confirm against your registration with the breaker to match the correct facelift version.

The 406 was a popular fleet and family car in the UK and was sold in large numbers, so fog lights do appear reasonably regularly at dismantlers. When buying used, check that the lens is uncracked and the bulb holder and wiring plug are intact, and confirm the part comes from a car on the correct side of the 1999 facelift to match your vehicle. Ask the breaker to confirm fitment against your registration rather than relying on year alone, as production overlaps can occur around facelift dates.
