Wanted- RT Left Fog Light

[Phil]

I've said at other places on this forum... I'm a tinkerer not a mechanic. I was installing HIDs to replace the stock fog H8 bulbs. Right side went perfectly. Left, however.... I heard something hit the floor and it is the small plastic tab at the bottom, back of the housing that allows the black, back cover to clip in place. I sure don't remember hitting it but it's definately cracked copmpletely off.

It appears that there is not a 'partial' fix for this. Before I go order a new fog light housing, I thought I'd see if anyone HAPPENS to have one they'd like to sell.

Everything works and the lights look great. I just like things to be complete and that includes having that dust cover neatly in place.

I don't recall what that area looks like as it has been some time since I have converted mine to HIDs---but is there any way to epoxy a zip tie square on each side so you could hold the cover in place with a long zip tie?????

That MIGHT work. Actually that's a good thought. I could epoxy an entire piece of hard plastic or metal, with a slot in it. I might look at that. I was looking at a spring to wrap around the cover.

The issue is I tried to do all of this without removing the fog housing. BUT... looks like that is inevitable no matter what I do. Doesn't appear to be that hard to do though.

Thanks for the idea.
