Porsche 993 Fog Light Reconditioning

Ella's fog lights needed some reconditioning.  The passenger side fog light had been cracked by a large stone, and was very yellow.  The driver side looked much newer -- like it had been replaced once already (hmm...don't remember that in the car's history, oh well...).


I bought a replacement lens from fellow rennlister with a broken fog light housing, and followed the DIY guide here:  forums.rennlist.com/rennforums/993-forum/249088-fog-lights-yellow-heres-a-way-to-make-them-shine.html.

I don't have much to add, except that I tried baking the old foglight to soften the adhesive, but it didn't work.

While I was at it, I installed LED fog lights that came with Bergvill F/X's HID kit, and the Lamin-X headlight kit also included fog light protection.  In the photo, there are some bubbles beneath the Lamin-X, but those disappeared over the next couple of weeks.
