Fog lamp lens question...

[Matts175]

2015 Vertical fog lamp assembly. Does anyone know if I undo these 4 clips, will the lens just pop off? Or is it glued as well? My lens is cracked and I just want to swap the lens and not the whole assembly. I found one used really cheap, the back mounting tabs are cracked, but the lens is perfect.

UPDATE... YUP, they are glued.

I'm sure you have to bake them open like the headlights. I think @1500ram12 has opened a set or two before?

Headlights yes fogs no. But I believe I've read that they have to be baked open just like headlights

I'm guessing the cheap one you found doesn't have the same mounting pin style for the fog light itself?
Do your current ones look something like this?

The housing itself is swappable if that pin matches.

Yup. Mine looks like that.

The one I found... they put screws in the pin. Probably trying to fix the wobble. I did the zip tie fix on mine and it worked great.

How close are you to the metro Detroit area? I might have an unmolested set
