Feeler - Lost a fog lens today...

Well, I was cleaning my car today (SORRY JANGY... I know you don't like'em clean!) and I noticed I no longer have the lens on the passenger side... no idea when or how it was taken out... is there a place to get aftermarket or is this something I have to purchase from the dealer... also now might be the best time to replace those lights to something a bit brighter like the headlamps?

The lens is best to go OEM. I get 25% discount at Hoehn, so let me know if you need me to order it. I'll be picking up my rotors next week.

Yes, you can upgrade the bulbs to better match the color of your xenons.

I'll find you a price. I don't know what the guys run on the bulbs. You know me, i don't care about aesthetics.

I haven't contacted my SA @ Escodido, but Jangy's is telling him we can't just replace a lens? Does anyone know if this is correct? I know on a parts manual on an older E55 W210 it shows the lens and it was priced cheap... something like $20.00... does anyone have a parts list for our cars?

Thanks,

Thanks,
Also, if there is a separate lens cover for the W211 AMG, does anyone have a part number, so i can get Jerry a discount??
