SCRIBR Yaris member Member 4,486 Member For: 18y 10m 1d Gender: Male Posted 15/04/07 07:10 AM Share Posted 15/04/07 07:10 AM well after inspecting my car after I got back from camping at buchan caves (vic) over the last week, I have noticed my front LHS fog light is cracked. It has cracked right across but doesn't appear as though the glass is going to come loose.Is this a major concern? apart from looking like a poor(er) man who can afford to fix his car is there any concerns with functioning & as long as I check it hasn't deteriorated further, will it be ok in its current state until my next service in a few months?whats a rought price on 1 (or pair) of the suckers?

It's been broken for 2 months and as I never use the spotties I'm leaving it as it is. Looking for some of that real think contact sheet like I had on the bike. It can handle the heat so when I get around to getting some I'll replace the light and stick that over it for a bit of protection.edit, sorry can't remember the price I paid. I think somewhere around the $130 each.

I got my rhs one smashed on the way home from picking the car up for the first time. Bought the light ($160-$180 from ford....ouch!), installed the protector never a drama again. If I run my hand across the protectors I feel all the potential $180 chips, best $30 ever.
