Not the bulb, just the glass protecting it. For some reason mine broke. I don't have any damage to the car but one fog lamp glass is cracked from one side to another.

Yeah, Mine (luckily?) had a rock or some kind of debris hit is and chip the glass on the side...but luckily the glass is pretty thick on the outside of it and it did not open a hole in it. I am wondering the same thing though. I'll bet you have to order the part for 1million dollars from Mazda.

$150 to be exact. You can't replace just the glass.

Alright, cracked it shall remain. It still seems sturdy anyway. Thanks for the info.

You can get some Rockblocker (www.rockblocker.com) 3m rock protection film in clear to maybe get it to stay together longer. They offer it in two thicknesses, one is thin and just for appearance (like to smoke the fog lights or make them yellow or blue), the other is very thick and protects the glass from impact. The latter would be well suited to the task I think.
