Front fog lamp lens smashed

Anyone know how easy it is to change the front fog lamp lens? Do I need to be double jointed? Also, does anyone know how you buy them, complete lamp?, separate lens?, L or R? cost?

IIRC way way way way back someone posted on this and the answer was complete unit, it might have been VA but I am going from memory ....

Yeah, you have to replace the whole unit. I cracked the lens of one of mine a few years ago and bought a slightly used pair of replacements on eBay for $80, since the local LR dealer wanted a ridiculous amount of money for a new one (can't remember now but it was US$300+ each, I think!) They are very easy to install in 5 minutes, gently pop the plastic bezel off the bumper and you will have access to the 3 (Torx T-15) screws that hold the lamp in place, then you unplug an electrical connector in the back and do everything in reverse to install the new unit. There is also an accessible adjuster screw on the side of the lamp assembly, should the beam pattern need to be aligned up or down (mine was perfect.) Left and right fogs have their own separate part numbers, but if you find them used on eBay you will likely get the pair anyway... Very Happy

PS: I assume this is for a 06/09 RRS? The 2010s are a different animal and I understand replacement may be somewhat more complicated since front wheels may need to come off first... Question

Thanks umbertob Thumbs Up

Have just checked Ebay and there's a complete lower front end with lamps for £50 result!

Yes, mine's a late 2005.

Cheers

Now just have to hope that when the next stone goes through the lens, it's the other one Bow down
