This is standard practice among all auxiliary lamp makers. It applies to
the cruddy Mopar fog lamps and the good Cibies, Hellas, Bosches, Carellos,
Marchals, etc. alike. There have been relatively few auxiliary lamps made
in the last several decades on which the lens can be replaced
individually. Much more commonly, the "light unit" (also called the
"lens-reflector unit" or "optic unit"), consisting of the bonded lens and
reflector, is the replaceable service part. Sometimes, however, there is
no lens-reflector unit available. At times like that, your choice is
either to swallow hard and pay the bucks for a new one of what you already
have, or change to a fog lamp design that *will* let you replace just the
lens-reflector instead of having to buy the whole unit. Examples of such
lamps that have similar dimensions to your current lamps would be Cibie
Tango 40 or Hella 500.
