Unhappy DHgate Replacement fog light housing
Hi everyone,

My passenger side fog lamp lens cracked. I'm looking to replace it. I drive a 2010 W204 C300 4matic Sport.

I found this low priced fog lamp housing from DHgate, and I was wondering whether anyone here has tried them before?

It's very cheap compared to OEM part, so I'm a little skeptical about it.

Please share your comments or thoughts.

Thanks!

Wow that is cheap and it looks like it. There are 2 fogs for the w204. One is round for the sport and the other is oval shape for the luxury. Here is one on ebay for the sport one.

When mine cracked I bought it from parts.com and it was around $99 USD. Had it broken the 2nd time, I would've replaced them with the LED DRL like the 2011 and up. But maybe putting lamin-x over the fogs helped.

Aznmode, do you have any of those extra plastic plugs that go in the back of the fog light housing?

Man that sucks. What happened with yours btw? Our garage is a mess (have roomates) so kinda having a hard time looking for it if I still even have it. But I'm looking for it still. It's been a year since I bought it so that makes it more tough to remember.

BTW here is the thread I found when I was looking for the fog lights. Maybe also try one of the guys that also purchased them just in case I have no luck.
