   its probably easier to fit after market fogs, when i had a base model fiesta i fitted a zetec s kit and i went to halfrods and bought some fogs and fitted them in to the bumper then i had a choice of two wiring kits either wire them in to the dash or buy a remote kit, i bought the remote kit its a bit more expensive but was pretty easy to set up (much easier than the other kit) and you had a little key fob where you could turn them on and off (when your 17 its a great toy to have ha) or you could Velcro the fob to the dash
   
   bumper wise its probably better to get a bumper with fog hole unless you can find a good place to put them

    best thing to do is do what ive just do is go to scrappy , get a bumper with fogs allready in , you will allso have to get the wiring loom if cirtroen not allready put in and you will need the fog light stalk on the steering wheel , loads off dollars , so wot i done is got a bumper with fogs all ready in , repaint to colour of my saxo and then fit to a simple switch on dash board ,
