Default 98 4dr oem fogs ?

Anybody know where I can get the oem fog lights for a good price? I found a couple sites online that sells it but the price is still too close to the dealership--about $200 or so.

your best bet on getting a super deal on the OEM fog lights is probably ebay...although not always trustworthy, look for a buyer with a high satisfaction rating, perhaps that can narrow the chances of you getting jerked...and if not, check out accordstore.com...they might have what you want...

If there often is alot of gravel or debri on the road where you live don't buy OEM. Probably 90% of the 6th gen OEM fogs I see have broken lenses. And you have to buy a whole new light housing and all to fix it. OEMs look nice but just don't hold up well.

there are others that are similar to oem, you could try those, they arent identical but similar, and worst comes to worst, you could grillecraft it if you cant find fog lights that satisfy your quest, and you end up with the OEM. I dont know how much the grillecraft will work but im sure it adds an extra measure of protection...agreed?

Agreed. It just seems like those OEM fogs attract rocks, and it's a bitch telling people they have to buy a whole new housing.

My parts department claims that they cannot get just the lens. If you know how let me know so I can tell those vultures how to do it.
