Just noticed that my drivers side fog light has a crack in the glass. Does anyone know if I can just replace the glass or do I need to replace the whole unit.

If I need to replace the whole unit, are they sold separately?

Should I replace both anyway to prevent on light from being brighter than the other?

Is it easy to replace?

Where can I go on-line to order this part?

Thanks Stefnee

Call courtesy nissan and ask them. They will give the right answers and the best price. Go to http://www.courtesy-nissan.com but call, don't do it online

The same thing happened to me about 3 weeks ago. You will have to replace the entire lamp housing. The going rate seems to be about $90, but I got mine for $75. The part number for my passenger side lamp was 26150-0L700.

It is a pretty simple install, maybe 5-10 minutes. I recommend that you use a 10mm socket to take out the lamp instead of using a phillips screwdriver. The screw head is soft and damages easily. The only "trick" to the install is that you have to line up the metal prong on the lamp with a funnel-shaped whole in the body of the car. The lamp will be in the way so it is difficult to see.

The new lamp was brighter than the old one, but that was in part due to lack of nicks on the new lamp. And I didn't feel like shelling out another $75 for a lamp.
