Mine have never broken ( knock on wood ) but are they any good for anything other than looks?

I find that in fog, snow, rain, almost any condition they don't help you to see at all. Maybe they help others see you, but I doubt they are any advantage over the regular headlamps.

I put high wattage yellow fog lamps on my old truck when I was a teen-ager... and they actually did help you pierce the fog to a greater distance.

I would like to hear other people's impressions... if you think that they are just for looks. Sorry about your lens crack... I've heard that happen to 3 or 4 people. ( and probably many more I have not heard of )

I know the newer FEH's have plastic lenses. My 2005 is all glass, and thick glass at that. Which did yours have?
