OEM Fog light housing replacement question

Hello all, I caught a rock in one of my fog lights and now I need to replace the entire assembly. I have been doing a search and have found out there are two different model numbers for the fog light assemblies, 261508993a and 261508993b. the "a" model has a bit of a slant to it while the "b" model is a bit more straight. Can someone tell me which one I need to order for my 2012 G37sport? Infiniti says I need the "b" model, but I am suspect of that.


261508993a


261508993b

Im in that process. I have the H11 bulb with TYC -19-5720-00 on my drivers side. I had a rock hit it, and it crack the housing. I'm debating whether keeping these Reflector Housings and putting HID from the the retro fit or diode dynamics. Or option B, getting the LED PROJECTOR fog kit from also the retrofit or Diode Dynamics.

Which one is for sure?
I have a 2016 6MT G37s 4 door. The 2012 G37s and G37Xs bumper is different then the Journey model. I am just curious if anyone can tell me which one I should order. Refer to the top thread for the question

Get off the computer and go look at the fogs on your car. Is the lens flat, or at an angle?

I did, but it gave me this part number: 261508993b. I have been burned by that site before. Ordered a part for my old 2006 G35 6mt and had to call them back to tell them their documentation was wrong. Leary of doing it again. I am going to take the part out of the car to check. I didn't want to, which is why I came here, but think that is the only way to truly make sure
