Hi,
The front oval fog light on my 2009 W211 Sport Estate is broken ( a stone I assume). Does anyone have experience in replacing one of these. I am guessing that either the wheel arch liner has to be removed or the front under tray but not sure where to start. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Dicky

I have replaced one, very easy to do. There is an access hole in the underside of the front valance/ bumper but I can't for the life of me remember exactly where. If you crawl under I am sure you will find it. I think it has a clip in cover but I am getting old and the memory is not what it used to be.

I haven't got the 211 now so I can't have a look for you.

Great.

I have ordered the part. Let's hope it's as easy as you remember!

Looks like the 2009 doesn't have the access panel so I'll have to drop the front under body panel (hopefully only partially). It doesn't look too difficult-famous last words!
