Hello guys,

My right fog light glass broke aswell last week. I ordered the part from MB, it took a day to come in. I'll post the part number once I dig it up from the trash.

Fairly easy to do, took me 15 min.

Turn the wheel all the way to the right, I feel that it was easier to access the wheel panel, or you could just take off your wheel.

There are three 10mm size nuts that are located on the lower part of the wheel panel

On that same panel there are two snap tight fasteners.
I bought extra fasteners from MB just in case I screwed one up.
Pull the center pin out with a flat head, once the pin is out you could pull out the whole thing with your fingers.

On the bottom of your front bumper you will see 4 or 5 more fasteners, can't remember.

After you pull those out you could pull the wheel panel out to get access to your fog light.

There are two 8mm nuts holding your fog light in place. There are on both sides of the lamp, you can't miss them. Once you pull those nuts out you could push your fog light out from the outside in.

The fog light glass cost me 25 dollars from MB and the fasteners were a buck each.

Hope this helps guys

You wouldn't have a picture or part number of those clips would you? I am about to replace mey driver's side lens and bulb.

Thanks, that was really helpful information.

In addition to my front bumper, fender, hood and mirrors, my fog lamp lenses also have the invisible bra film applied for protection. It is not known if it would prevent this failure, but as is often said: "It can't hurt".

Usually it's not rocks hitting the glass that cracks these lenses. Flexing of the air dam/front facia is usually the culprit. Scraping the front or brushing the curb can do it. Mine was broken by a hubcap that shot across the freeway and nailed the right front about 8" from the glass. It's the way they are mounted....in the lense holder and to the bumper cover.

wizkid has a bunch of awesome install tips on that site...
a lot of duplicate posts on here could be avoided, with a quick scan through his site. Thanks wizkid, if I haven't told you before.
Check out the install pics & instructions for the MB warning triangle on the C320 Sport Sedan:

anyone install YELLOW foglights? yellow oem-style or yellow clear lens or even yellow bulbs (which is better anyway)? my right foglight cracked so a replacement is in need. i'd prefer yellow since there is lots of fog in the spring and fall where i live and replace both foglights.
