Fog Light Question. I had front end damage to my car recently and it was fixed by insurance. Well, they only replaced one fog light, so one is very clear and the inside ''silver'' piece is very shiny. Now my other one is dull so it looks dumb when you look at both.
My question is...is there a way to pop the lense off the fog light with out breaking it to clean the lense and the inside silver part, or do I need a whole new unit? Thanks for the input!

I've taken my lenses off before. Required that I put them in the oven (same process as the whistler mod). Just gotta clean off the leftover silicone residue, apply new silicone, and put the lens back on when you're done.

yeah, i know. the flip side to that is that unlike everybody that has miles, i can't really go and drive this too much. i still enjoy it, but not as much if it had 30,000 to 50,000 miles. if it makes you feel any better, the other side that didn't fall off has cracks around the entire lens on the edges, they both need replaced and have hardly been used!
