Both my front fog lights are broken. The right one needs the housing as well. So I was looking for something like this:

What year Vibe? The fogs you link to will require some work to get them to fit, they're not a drop in.If you want a direct replacement,
http://www.partszoneonline.com/ has stock fogs for around $75 complete (not sure if it comes with the bulb). Or keep checking eBay for replacements.For lower grille, if eBay or a local junkyard doesn't have one, the same place sells them for about $18...

I'll throw this into this fog light post as well.... When I did a set for another member here, I had to swap the factory adjuster screws onto the new lights... I can't recall why now though... something about the pivot on the one end I think.... take one out and compare very carefully to make sure everything is the same..
