WTB: glass from stock fog light
Anyone out there that has replaced stock fog lights on a 3rd gen and still have their original lights around? I lost the glass from one light somehow, now the bulb is exposed to the elements on one side. Let me know...

I may have one for you TDiddy. One of mine remains out even after replacing the bulb, but I haven't had a chance to troubleshoot it yet. Could be a bad connection, but its more likely been damaged by the notorious road rot issues. If it's unrepairable, I'll let you know.

Well, turns out road rot definitely cause the outage, but it wasn't permanently damaged. A good chunk of the housing is now gone along with part of a contact, but I was able to clean up the contacts/connectors good enough to re-ignite the fog light. Some sanding and a fresh shot of Rust-Oleum and corrosion inhibitor on the contacts will hopefully prevent any further damage.
Sorry I couldn't help you out TDiddy...
