I have a 2000 IS200. I have just suffered a 60K service which was stratospherically expensive.
Both of my front foglights are not working and I was told that both bulbs had corroded them selves to the light fitting. I was told new ones were about £200each. I decided not to have them replaced as the bill was so big already.
I have tried to remove the lights to see if I can replace just the bulbs. Not so easy!. Just undoing the retaining screws is a nightmare and then the light does not come forward enough to get it out. I tried going from the wheel arch but as the bulb does seem to be corroded onto the fixture I could not undo it. I also saw that there was no slack on the wiring to allow the fixture to go forwards. I cannot envisage how I'll put the screws back.
I suppose my plan now is to get a pair of foglights at a cheaper price then the Lexus dealer and then get an independent mechanic to fit them
My questions are therefore
Where can I get a pair of front foglights?
Is there are trick to getting the foglights out so I can do theis myself?
Does anyone have a mechanic they can recommend around London N14 or London E11?
Thanks
