It's getting harder to find them. I need a replacement driver's side and ordered what was labelled Depo off of Ebay but received a dorman. My fogs are wired for HID so I need to be able to reuse the twist on cap and the doorman & Depo aren't interchangeable.

Just replace the lens if thats all that broke. Remove the bulb and bake lens down in the oven at 220 for 15 minutes grab with a wet towel and pry off the lens.

I literally just had to do that last week. I installed a pair of 'Eagle Eyes' fog lights in 2013, but the lenses became really oxidated. I was going to replace them with a generic eBay pair, but I saw the quality of those lamp housings were really cheap quality. Instead, I baked the old and new fog lights, removed the lenses, and swapped them. Had to use some new sealant too. It was well worth it.
