4 inch round fog light question

Friday afternoon I decided to hand wash the truck for the first time this year. I was washing the front bumper when I noticed my passenger side fog light lense was cracked, like a rock hit it. It was not shattered but I would still like to get a new one or even a set. I went to Advanced Auto in town and they didnt have anything. Then I went to the Ford dealer in town. They priced ONE fog light with bracket and all for $100! I'm sorry but Im not gonna spend that much for one foglight thats stock. So I was wondering where I could get a replacement fog light thats either aftermarket or even stock for cheaper.

Yes, I have an '02. Im kinda new at all this and I may be overreacting about the price. But that just blows my mind that it's that much for one. Thank you, I'd appreciate it. If not then I will just grit my teeth and pay it out.

I believe Zach(Redneckstone) modified another pair of lights into that position. I'd ask him about it. When Ford's crapiola lights cost the same price as a premium aftermarket set, you probably shouldn't buy from a stealership.

a better quality one? thats strange, how can you get better quality than stock? they are probably getting you an aftermarket one, for that i would spend a few extra bucks and get a REAL ford one.

My post went to the moon I guess.....or deleted.....seems like the same mice from RPS are chewing on the wiring in here too......better get an exterminator to get rid of them..........

Anyway, check eBay. Cheaper then $85 shipped, that's for sure.

I have a set still in my stock valence(which I have removed). The brackets are broke at least on the one side, not sure about the other but really you should be able to reuse yours. I have a 2003 XLT. I think the XLT fog lights are different then the edge ones.

you might wanna keep your eyes out and just wait for a good deal

I just payed 50 to another member here for a set of edge stockers and i got hte pigtails too....

when I need something in a hurry that is quality I'm going through Jusnes, but patience is a virtue especially when your wallet is as vacent as mine
