So for this fix you have to have a fog light that has a decent glass lens with a damaged reflector/bulb mount that needs replacing?
It has got to be a rare situation when you find yourself in Red Dogs situation, although it did happen to me when I came into possession of a fog light that had damage just to the bayonet fitting for the bulb. I purchased a fog light that just had the glass broken but had a good reflector, the seller was lucky to get some money for an otherwise useless part. Normally the reflector would only get damaged by contact with water.

I became aware of the interchangeability when I took apart my damaged fog light and compared the pieces to my spare set of fog lights.
