Anyone Replaced a 2005 (rectangular) Foglight and Assembly?

Driving home tonight, something (still not sure what), kicks up off of the car in front of me and shatters my passenger side foglight assembly.... blew my Siliverstar bulb into 9000 pieces... To this very moment, I have no idea how it didn't thrash the paint on my bumper but, after VERY close investigation, there's NOTHING wrong with it... thank god.

What am I looking at spending to replace this thing? I already have it off of the truck so, I'm running with a GREAT BIG 2005 foglight hole on my front bumper. Suggestions on where to get it?

Obviously, I need this thing about 6 hours ago. *sighs* What a pain in the butt...

I see one on ebay and it's only the lens... I really dont' want to bother with realignment and all that jazz thus, I need the entire assembly (aka: mounting bracket and all... ready to screw three bolts in and it's fixed).

Scratch that... I've found two...

One is just a lens ... the other one is broken and missing pieces. *sighs*

I hate this... really a ROYAL PITA.

I haven't been able to get a part number as of yet... I think it may be 4L54AJ17424 but, I'm not certain and can't confirm it as of yet... any help there would be appreciated as well...

RP I had to replace my driver side foglight because I was a goofball trying to put my 9005 Silverstars and didnt properly put it in correctly, melted the plastic surrounding the bulb . Got mine on ebay for 24$ plus 20 shipping :o . Very good quality and shipping. I say better than OEM. Ebay Link

I keep hoping someone that has upgrade front clips will chime in... LOL!

I wonder if I should be worried about the 'cheaper' fog lights... I wonder if the quality is poor?

Anyone have a P/N on the OEM original one and, if so, can you confirm that it comes with the mounting bracket?

Thanks joker... Question for you....

How's the look, side by side, with an OEM one and this replacement... are they identical?

Hmm.. might be.



I need the lens and the mounting bracket... I can't tell though if it's all one piece? $60 list price, I figured MUCH more than that... I hope that's it.

If my truck had foglights I'd go look for you, but that looks like it's probably it.
