Replacing cracked Fog Lights
Replacing cracked Fog Lights
have a cracked lens... can I just pop the lens off and buy new lens or do I have to replace the entire fog light?
iv heard you can do just the lens, if thats true... where can I buy the lens? Also, can I get the clear lens instead of the ones with vertical lines in them (like mine have now)

I've been out of the loop for a while, but last I heard you had to replace the whole light. The light is basically the same as the ones on '86 Mustangs and those can be purchased from a number of sights for ~$40.
To change the light, there's a nut behind the light (inner side of air dam) that screws loose and the light will come out through the front. From there, it's pretty self explanatory. Good luck!

Lightning SVT - When you say the "whole assy." do you mean the glass part with the mounting plate that is sealed to it?
I ask because I just replaced my drivers side lamp yesterday which I purchased from Texas Mustang for around $35.00 or so.
These are for 88-93 and newer Mustang GT's.
It came with 2 light assy. which consists of the glass lens with the actual bulb mount "welded" to the back. They are made by Hella, and are about 99% identical to the Lightnings assy.
The negative contact is wider on the new assy. rather than the thin one on the Lightning.
I took my Rotozip to it, and it fit great.
Although I did notice the rubber cover that goes over the bulb, and wires is a little too small, but the housing should hold it together fine.
The bulb holder is a bit larger on the Lightning assy., and the tension arm that swings over to hold the bulb in place only has one arm as opposed to two for the Mustang GT lamp assy.
