Does anyone know how to replace the bulb in the fog lamp?

The 2nd step in the manual is to “remove the lower air deflector”. What is this?

I can just see a hole under the front spoiler (underneath the car) that’s directly in-line with the fog lamp. Am I supposed un-screw something?

The lower air deflector, I think, is the big black sheet inside the front spoiler.

Why are you trying to change it anyway? Correct me if I'm wrong, but blown head/tail lamp globes are covered under warranty aren't they?

On a different note... apparently, to remove the entire lens assy, they have to remove the front spoiler. Well planned, eh?

get the dealer to do it.

The hole you see is an adjustment hole that allows you to align the fog lamp.

The black/grey plastic sheet that covers the bottom of your engine needs to be removed. A lot of those plastic screws and a few small bolts. Because it sits on the inside lip of the front spoiler it is quite difficult to remove. Unless you put the car on stands or have a pit or hoist it is near impossible to get the right angle to do it yourself.

The fog lamp is just pushed into some plastic guides and is a tight fit. You can actually do it without removing the front skirt but again it is very tight and you need to be as flexible as the rubber man.

I have done this myself and will never do it again. Too much of a hassle. I had a big stone break one of my lamps and decided to replace it myself. Next time the dealer get the job.

If it has blown due to normal wear and tear, generally, the customer coughs up, but if its blown due to a electrical problem, then that's warranty all the way. :gasthrower:

It's dead easy mate.

Hit a kangaroo or a fox, that'll knock em out for ya

I also heard if you hit the brakes hard enough they will just fall out :lol:

I replaced all my front globes with Phillips Clear Vision. Took the car down to the local mechanic to put the car on the hoist cause we couldn't undo the air deflector. Too low.

ill agree with that but you need to combine it with serious break shudder at about 110km/h

Thanks for your help guys. Looks like it’s off to the dealers…

Nup, ill disagree with that one. With the brakes on my car, the clamping pressure is certainly a lot higher, and ive jumped on my brakes hard, and the fog lights are still where they should be.... :lol:
