harrydunn Posted November 4, 2003 Report Posted November 4, 2003 Hey All, Got a cracked left fog lamp lens that's letting a lot of rain inside the assembly. Hot bulbs don't like cold rain and actually exploded the bulb. Trying to find a lens at a parts house but no luck. I've heard they're expensive from dealers. Going to try some salvage yards as well. Anyone have any more suggestions? I did see the post on making your own glass, but I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet. Thanks. Quote
Redfox340 Posted November 4, 2003 Report Posted November 4, 2003 Well, if you don't want to pay a ton (and for good reason), junkyards are your only shot. But, I've personally rebuilt mine; since I couldn't find intact fog leses and didn't have any more patience to search. If you need a full procedure, let me know... I've got one posted. - Erik Quote
harrydunn Posted November 5, 2003 Author Report Posted November 5, 2003 Let's have it. I'll try anything once. Quote

harrydunn Posted November 5, 2003 Author Report Posted November 5, 2003 Found one at a local salvage yard. Only had the drivers side which is what I needed. I got lucky--$25 for the entire assembly/bracket. Quote

harrydunn Posted November 6, 2003 Author Report Posted November 6, 2003 I will definitely take a look. Have just talked to them on the phone so far. It's a reputable yard so I'm pretty confident it will be a quality item. Quote
