Where can I pick up the Griot's Covers? Are they on the net ? Do you
have a phone number I can call ?

Thanks,

I have the smoked fog lights from Germany and am running the Griot's on
them, No way I was going to let them get chipped and cracked at over
$300
for the pair.  I have had them for over a year and no problems
whatsoever
and I use the fogs on a regular basis.
   When I pulled off my stock fogs, it was amazing how many little rock
and pebble chips they had picked up in the couple of years on the car.
