My passenger side fog lamp glass is broken. The dealer wants 400$ to replace. How difficult is it to do and where can I buy one?
 
You need to buy the entire housing; can't just replace the glass..Happened to me last year..To replace look for threads regarding Hid fogs on a 2nd Gen..easy and will take about 20 minutes for a first timer. But it on infintipartsusa.
 
This happened to me before when I first purchased it. A rock probably hit it and broke the glass. Dealer replaced it for free no questions.
 
Thanks PMG.

I really don't know actually lol. I just told the guy that works there and they replaced it. That's why I love Infiniti of Masssepequa. Always taking care of me!:top:
 
OMG :eek.: $400 to replace the lens ?!? Guess its best to invest on the overlays for these or else I'd be kicking myself !! I just ordered a sheet of yellow lamen-x and hopefully it'll be an easy instal !
 
Check eBay there are some legit sellers there selling it for cheap
 
You need to watch some of the stuff on eBay! I'm not saying everything is sketchy, as there are some real OEM parts on the site, but some are knock-off or after market crash parts. Although they look the same, they may not function the same or not work or last very long. Been there done that! In Virginia we have State Safety Inspections. If the light is on the vehicle it has to work and function like it's supposed to. A cracked lens is not passable. I went through fog lights like a hot knife through butter! All of them had the lens that were part of the housing. Meaning crack lens means replacing the entire light. I've bought some crash parts that melted down within minutes of installing them as they were crap. Meant to be seen and not to work! My Chevy the lights were not that costly at 45 a pop! My Mitsubishi was off planet earth at 350 a pop not including tearing off the entire bumper to replace them. there were no after market parts or crash parts for that vehicle. After round one, I bought the covers to place in the hole to replace the light as the cost was getting out of control and since there were hole the inspector was not going to pass it.
 
its not hard to replace, go in front of the front wheels in the wheel well and there's easy access to the fog lamps after you remove plastic pieces
