Cracked Fog Lamp Lens

[gms]

A fog light lens on my '06 M35 is cracked - probably a rock. Can I replace just the lens or do I need to buy an entire fog lamp assembly ($183 from Infinitipartsusa)? Either way, is it a DIY job for a mechanically challenged owner?

By the way, why is the left fog lamp assembly cheaper than the right? ($134 vs. $183)

i believe the glass is fused with the plastic in order to make it completely sealed. I would suggest replacing the whole assembly to avoid any fogging up or humidity...I live in houston and went through 4 fog light assembly's with my honda ($150 each)!!

Thanks for the advice. I found this one on Amazon.com w/free shipping. Although it has the same part number someone posted in in the other thread (261508990A), the compatability chart says it fits 2008-2009 M's. Am I safe getting it for an '06?

I'll take a chance & get it. Amazon has a liberal return policy. I'll post how it works out.

I'd appreciate any installation instructions you can provide. Removing the bumper insert looks tricky.

Update - The 2007 Sentra S & SL light fits. The part numbers are 261558990A for the Drivers side and 261508990A for the passenger side. I bought mine on Amazon. I messed around for about an hour trying to get the bumper grill out but gave up before I broke it. I paid the dealer to do the install when I went in for regular service. Even though that cost me $80, I still came out $100 or so ahead by buying the part on line.

My passenger side fog light cracked. I traced the shape & had a glass company make me a new lens for $10. Good thing, too, as the lens kept cracking. Some sort of design flaw I guess.
