Default '02 OEM Fog Light

I wish I knew how it happened but my passenger side fog light is busted out, I can only assume it was vandalized. Anyway, I have been looking for an original OEM light but all I can find are "OEM Mopar" with plastic lenses. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement light with a glass lens?

Thanks!

Most likely a rock got tossed up by a car in front of you. Happens quite often actually. I would think the plastic lenses would be less prone to breakage.

You can also check out RockAuto.com, choose the truck, then 'Body, exterior', then 'Fog lamp...' I took a quick look and saw some around $25 and up. And if you look in the General section here I posted a 5% discount code about a week ago for that site.

I guess plastic would break less... but as I look at my truck I love how my 10 year old fog lamps are still crystal clear and my plastic headlamps look like crap.

I agree I like that the lenses, well one anyway, is still crystal clear. I forgot about LMC truck. I have asked many ebay sellers of oem mopar parts and they all say plastic lenses from the factory, what gives? I know that's not true, mine are factory glass. Even the Hella repacements are plastic???
