It finally happened...

...after 60,000 miles I finally had a rock hit my fog light lens on the left and crack it!

When replacing the lens do they come out from the front or the back? I assume I have to remove the left foglight assembly like I did to install my new fog bulbs a few months ago.

Roll Call!!! I had the same thing happen to me about a month ago. Same one too. Still havent replaced it yet, but I know it comes out the front but has to be disconnected out the back. Its a lot easier on the 02 then on the 00 or 01. I think the best deal ive seen if for both at www.performancenissanparts.com for $139.75. Ive seen them sell for about 120 for just the single one, but why not buy the extra one just in case. Hell, its only 20 bucks more and who knows how our luck will be?
