C220 Front Fog Light Lense

[andyr357]

Hi,

The glass on the front passenger fog light has been smashed by a stone. I know I can replace the lense, but does anyone know of any instructions anywhere as to how I do this ?

Is it an easy job ? as the dealer wanted £117 to do it which seemed expensive.

Any help would be appreciated.

It's a 56 plate if that helps.

Cheers,
Andy

Very simple for a diy. Remove the under tray on that side. (plastic push in clips) and fold back.

Its either a 10mm or 8mm socket required to undo the retaining bolts for the foglamp. They are very obvious but you may need a torch.

Pull the bottom of the bumper out to allow the extra space for the fog lamp to drop. (washer bottle gets in the way)

Remove the clips retaining the glass and there you have it.

Be careful as the shards of glass can easily cut you.

Excellent news.

Thanks for the tips. I'll have a go tonight, as I have the replacement lense now.

Cheers.
