2005 Matrix Fog Lights

Hi all...new to the forum. I have a 2005 4WD Matrix and both of the OEM fog lights have been busted by rocks or construction debris from the DC Beltway. Where is the best place to purchase complete replacement kits without going to the dealer. I've visited several sites and all of them seem to have kits but they're about $135 each. Am I the only one who thinks this is too much? What about some of the sales on eBay (except for BlingLIghts)? Thanks

Thanks. I'm thinking eBay may be the way to go, too. But...

For all those who read this thread, I purchased a pair of replacement DEPO brand fog lights from speedstersource.com on ebay for about $108, including shipping. I received them yesterday and installed both in about an hour. The quality appears to be top-notch and looks to be direct OEM replacement, with OEM fit and finish. There were no directions included with the lights, but the swap was easy if you know your way around your car. If you need some tips I'll gladly share...just email or post to this thread. I found many sites and stores selling the same lights for $135 each. If there are any problems with these lights I'll let you know, but so far I am really impressed. Thanks

fog lights

Hey...sorry for not getting back with you sooner. I looked on ebay again for the seller, speedstersource or gummysource but could locate any sales by them right now. But, go to speedstersource.com and try that. I will say that I do remember any amber or colored lights by them. I will keep looking though. Thanks

I finally found the name of the eBay store for the place I bought these lights...it's called Half Cost of OEM. Go to ebay and search under the store name area for them. They are there.
