1997-300 E Fog Light Lens Question

My 97 300E has a broken Fog Light Lens. As I look up the part numbers #1305621662 L/S and # 1305621663 R/S . There is a side note [ for models with AMG styling]. Is this refuring to one piece style? Can someone explain this to me before I order the wrong part.

Thanks Much: David Casto

E55 AMG W210's have round foglights.

Ours are on the rectangular side...unless you have an E55 bodykit.

Your '97 E300 has the rectangular lenses. Those can be found in many places. But, depending on the condition of the fog lamp itself it may be better to be buy replacement lamps...

Lenses

Your fogs probably are like the ones pictured in my '96 E300D. While you're at it, consider replacing both lenses (notice the difference in my pictures) and putting "X-pel" on them. X-pel is a plastic film designed to cushion things like glass lenses from rock chips. I have it on all my cars.
