Fog light glass

Can I replace just the glass or do need to replace the whole thing ? Big rock broke the glass on my right fog light , literally only hit the fog light .

Sorry to say, man, but you have to replace the whole thing.
Another passenger side victim, just like me. To all those who haven't invested $15 in Lamin-X/VentureShield insurance yet... you've been warned yet again!

The exact same thing happened to me the other day, a piece of flying debris (rock I assume) hit my right side fog light as well when I was traveling down the hwy and it broke the lens. Unfortunately, I doubt you can just replace the lens, but I'm not 100% sure about this. If that's the case then we might have to end up buying a whole new replacement fog light.

Can't believe this has happened to someone else on the forum around the same time . Dealer wants 300 bucks to replace the fog light . Fk automotive has aftermarket fogs for 90 . I might just get a set of those .

A single OEM replacement is ~$125 online and is a simple swap. If you go aftermarket, make sure it's for the Sport models (round) and has the same mounting points as the factory light.

I think the 92.40 is for the AMG. For the 300/350 its either less or more depending on if you have LED's or not. Or am I reading that wrong?

C300/350 Sport models have the AMG bumper. That's what delineates the models when looking for parts online. Some places actually say "For/Not For Sport Models" while most places use "With/Without AMG."

I do believe so, but have not ordered from them since I scored a used light from a cool guy here.
Always check the bay as well in case someone has a set avail used.

Where's a DIY for replacing the driver's side fog light?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the link and part #. Just ordered one for my passenger side. There seems to be different variation of the fog lights. As the first one I bought which was supposed to fit does not as it was more oval in shape. The one I bought was from carparts.com and was wrong even though it says on their site its compatible with the sport version C class.

Also going to put some lamin-x to further protect them.
