I noticed recently that my front right fog light lens has yellowed. I took a closer look at it today and saw that the inside of the assembly has water in it. So, do you guys know the approx. price to replace both fog lights?

My fog lights have yellowed as well. I have some headlight polish I am going to try on them when I get my headlight project finished. The product is working wonders on the HL's. Now to see if it will work on the FL's. I think the product is called 3M Headlight lens restorer or something like that. I started a thread about the stuff about 3 weeks to a month ago. Let me see if I can find it for you.

Here it is. Headlight Polish

well I'll point out there is no point of spending good money on a leaking lamp, as it will yellow again.

I'd highly recommend replacing it, if you can get the glass european ones as they are more durable. I've never had an issue with my fogs since I swapped, heck with all the stone chips in my from bumper I'm still suprised they have not cracked our broken, but I guess they live up to the &quot;built ford tough&quot; standard lol
