You sure they're on the inside?
Mine were covered in tiny spots due to stones.

Not 100% sure about fog lights on 206's but if they dont come apart remove the fog from the bumper take light bulb out get a coat hanger or something then thick bit of cloth on the end with meths or something and simply just poke away at it for a while cleaning it, i have to do this with my lights :/

Stick the fogs in the oven for about 20 mins, then prise them apart, clean the insides and re-seal ![Smile Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif)

Correct me if im wrong...
But there's a hole where the bulb goes in..
Get a hose on the end of it... And then leave it near a radiator to dry...

That would be easier. But prise them apart and you can spray the inside whilst you're there, which looks awesome |

thanks for the all the suggestions folks - initially thought bake and crack was too much trouble but am now tempted by the spraying idea
