Yes, that's the dealership that the site I bought the fog lamp from had sourced it from, according to the sheet in the packaging. (It's in Florida, United States) Try to contact them directly and just ask if they will ship it to you for like $90. lol

no fortunately for me my lens never broke. I purchased the lamin-x covers about 3 months after getting the car. I don't know how legit they are but they have a lot of different things that most websites dont have like exhaust system, mufflers and pipes.

Just got off the phone from the MB of Fort Lauderdale and they pricing it for $165.55. They say there prices fluctuate on the 1st of every month!

My local dealer is quoting me $223.30+ tax... I'm going to look further into that parts.com website and see what kind of brand fog lamp that is!

Has ANYONE bought a fog lamp from parts.com?!? Thanks...

That's retarded, lol. You can get it from VIPgermanparts.com for $154, not sure if that includes tax or shipping yet though?

Yea... I saw that! I just wrote parts.com to see what brand they carry. They have it listed for $88!!! Hopefully it's a Hella... Soon as I hear from them I will post it to let others know! =)

Granted it's not 100% certain that this will protect the lens but i have yet to see a thread saying " fogs with Lamin-X film broke "
I heard that you can't use the Lamin-X film on the lens if you have xenon (HID-like) bulbs installed. Something about the lens getting too hot and melting the Lamin-X

C300 - 2008
I am in Houston and paid $150 for the fog lamp to a MB mechanic and installed myself also applied laminex and so far look ok, don’t buy online they will sent the wrong part – when buying use part number to ensure you get the right one.

Me:
I'm wanting to get a few details about your fog lamp w/amg you have on your site for the Mercedes C300 Sport. What brand is the fog lamp? And is it OEM or an aftermarket piece? Thank you very much for your time and hope to hear from you soon!

Joe Messineo from parts.com:

All original OEM parts
lft fog #2048202156 cost $88.55
rt fog #2048202256 cost $88.55

the make is HELLA made in Germany and I have it in stock.

I'm going to go for it! =) He gave me the right part # as well as the right brand! I'll keep ya' posted to see how it goes!!!

Quick update....

Sorry it took so long but I just now had time to let anyone know who is in need of a fog light that Parts.com is legit!

The cost was about $100 for the part, taxes and shipping. And it is a Hella OEM fog light.

ONLY problem is, I'm now emailing back and forth with them because I needed the left (driver side) light and they sent me the right! But on the part itself it says left! But if I was to put it on the driver side, the HELLA logo would be upside down. So I'm in the process of trying to clear that up with them. Keep you posted later!!!

2009 E350 AMG Exaust and Sport package
Thanks to all for the good info-I too have become subject to the dreaded fog light replacement (Driver side). Brumos in JAX quoted $175.00 for the part and $125.00 to install-I DON'T THINK SO ! I've placed order with PARTS.COM $123.00 for the part and express shipping (The Laminix is en route too) Brumos informed me that it is in fact the same fog light assembly as the C63-I have a 2010 C300 Sport with the AMG appearance package-they verified part # 2048202156 with my VIN.
