cracked fog lights??

[avusbluem98]

when I bought my Ti, the fog lights were cracked, so i replaced and sure enough two weeks later I have a huge crack through the drivers side fog, any suggestions to prevent this, or are they just a huge target and we have to put up with it??

You can put some 3M laminex on them. Or stop driving on gravel roads.

thanks that is a great idea, and i knew that Gravel road at ludicruos speed was a terrible idea!

it might help to replace them with OEM foglights if you didn't, the aftermarket ones tend to have thinner glass

I just bought some aftermarket ones for the same reason... driver's side was cracked. However, the freaking thing doesn't click. It comes off easy... the little metal plate that holds it tight doesn't fit the thicker hole on the aftermarket. I'm really upset and I think I'm gonna get OEMs.

remove fogs, insert blanks, and never worry again

hahah no i was just stupid enough to drop the little metal plate on the floor hahah i made a fool of myself ... prolly wasted like one hour to get the fog in with a wire so it doesnt fall and finally saw the thing they are on now and look good thanks again
