Busted Foglight

Anyone know the cheapest place to get a 2002 - 2003 foglight? I had a crack in mine then yesterday I noticed a new hole about the size of a bb.

$200 from dealer is not an option.

200 from dealer for 1, or, this does sound weird, but if you order the complete foglight setup, that's 2 housing plus the switch inside the car, it comes out cheaper...$145 with DAVEB

don't ask me why it's cheaper...DAVEB himself is confused...but that's how it is on the computer.

I was guesstimating $200 for two. $145 for the kit (one light I don't need and a switch) is still awful.

so then either find someone selling that side or suck it in and buy it. i'd split it with you, but i just realized BOTH are cracked, soi'm gonna need a set...if i can find someone that just needs the switch, i'd be happy.

$135.19 http://www.nissanparts.cc/catalog/?section=118
for both fogs and the switch. Buy these then sell the other fog to someone on the org. This is how I got another fog for $70.

Buy both of them and sell the other one in the classifieds. And make sure to get clear protective covers for the new ones. They are like $20.

Why don't you try a junkyard first.
You just need the casing right? not the whole kit. I'm sure I will be cheaper than buying a new set from the dealer. Just make sure it's for a 2002 or 2003 and you're good to go.

Good Luck
Nice

That's it. Just replaced my passenger side last month (Diesel truck tire) and ordered the kit from Courtesy. I'll send you the fog light, stalk, and relay (Don't need) for 65.00 dollars (That includes shipping) I paid 162.00 for the kit shipped to my house.

Here is a link to that protective 3M material for the fogs. Check my homepage for pics of this product. It's thick and does a good job protecting my fogs. The 12" x 12" can easily do 2 sets of fogs and I sold my other half to another member on the org.
