Hi i was wondering can just the chrome bezel be replaced or do i have to replace the entire lense cover and housing ?
i called one body shop up today they told me that they were not sure but if they could replace the housing and not have to remove the bumper than it would be about an hour labor
if the bumper had to be removed to get the housing off then it would be a few hours labor.

I slid into a snow bank today and it was really hard snow i guess because the driver side fog lamp
got shoved right inside the bumper area and the chrome bezel cracked but the bumper is still whole no issues no damage to the bumper lucky

please any info here would help
thank you

You can replace only the chrome besel, and tht's a 20 min easy job.

is this what i need to get ?
i have trouble telling if that ring on the outside of the lense is chrome or just a reflection of the lense

ESh

The ring is chromed.
You need that one from ebay.

ok thank you i am going to order that one now.
one other question is that just the chrome and the bracket or does that include the lense cover also my lenses was pretty damn foggy and discolored from over the years
should i just get a full new fog lamp ? or is that going to include the lense cover also ?

ESh

No, it's not going to include the lense cover.

ThumperPup

ah ok so then to get the lense cover i have to buy the entire lense assembly also ?
or can you get the cover on its own ?

ESh

No, you can't buy the cover only. It goes together and it's sealed.

fog lamp bulb ?
ok so now i have another questions
even thought both of my fog lamp bulbs are good and work fine they actualy where replaced earlier this past fall.
but since im replacing the housing on one side i thought maybe just replace the bulbs with something that looks a bit nicer and better.
what about something like this ?
or is there something else that one of you would recomend that is near the same price rang i don't want to go spending 40 - 100 dollars on fog lamp bulbs
