Default Foglight question

Hey guys removed my fog light today, the lens is filthy and the bulb is broken, having problems removing the lens from the housing it seems like its glued. Never done this before here are some pics any tips are appreciated. Hoping to get new bulbs/parts from a crappy tire up the street. Thanks!

Bake it in the oven at 200 degrees for 10 minutes to melt the glue and pry the lens off. Repeat in opposite to reassemble.

That's exactly how I took my headlights apart to retrofit projectors

He lost the retainer ring off the lense itself. He will have to find a way to reattach the 3 little holes to the back again. Mine was too far gone to do that, so the best thing to do was just get new lights. I ordered mine last week, due in Monday. They are the Depo's clear fogs. They cost me 87.00 for the pair, delivered, on Amazon. This will wake up the old bumper lights and give it a Lightning style look all around in the front. The 99's and up are the same or a bit cheaper and in stock. You might want to look there. Good luck.
