E63 Fog Lights for cheap?

I am looking for some E63 round fog lights. I know the depo's are about $150 on eBay, but want the hella's. I remember a while back somebody posted you could buy them on pelicanparts.com for like $75 each, but I cannot find that price. Any help?

OEM is going to be rape, alternatively you can use the Depo brand ones from Ebay for about $140 for the pair.

That is what I was about to do until somebody said they were not nearly as good as the oem hella's, but I find that difficult to believe. I have the depo tail lights and have ordered some of their parts in the past and they were pretty good. What do you think?

Pelicanparts.com and you need to order 2 of them. The left and right fog light use the same part #'s.

Yup exactly! I have the HID's in my current fog lights so I will just swap them into the new round housing when I put the bumper on.

Damn. Looks like both fog lights on my '08 E63 have taken rocks and are seriously cracked. Was in for the C service and dealer gave me a quote for $675 (+tax!) . How easy are these to swap out at home?

Is this fog light the same as part #209-820-08-56 ?

Can I order from the above link instead of purchasing part #209-820-08-56 which is what the various e63 parts list states is the fog light?

Yes. It's a Hella foglight too so it's nicer than Depo.

Cool thanks! That saves me about about $100

BTW, is parts.com the cheapest place to get the rest of the E63 conversion parts? I already have the front bumper..

As these are not HID, what bulbs are people running?

Also, came across these, given the price, doubt quality is high, figure I would share in case someone is looking for angel eye fogs.

What do you guys think would be the closest matched HID's to the Bi Xenon's?

ANOTHER FAIL OF THE MIXED E55/E63 FORUM.

I GOT THE REPLACEMENTS AND THEY ARE THE WRONG THING. WHY? Because E55 guys don't have E63s. Citylightva do not order.

Now I gotta deal with a return. I will post some pictures later.

Note that the removal is easy. Start by removing the 3 torx screws in the plastic panel. Pull the panel and then remove the 4 torx screws on the mounting plate of the lens housing.

Edit:
Here are the correct housings.

If it was the right part, you would be right. Would you like to buy the two I have now I can not use.

So here is the deal. If the wiring harness is different that a stock e63 it might work. The mounting screws will line up. Not sure if there is enough space behind the plastic grill for it to fit.

Pictures shortly.
