Some say you can take the lens cover off from the front. Ive never done this. You need to push the entire fog light assy inwards. If you have the stone tray off, get your other hand in there to catch it as it falls out. You need to use a big of force. Then you can crack the lens open and replace the lamp. I think it gives a how to in you owners manual.

Yeah just give it a whack from the front and it should just fall out behind the bumper.

I dont know what Hanra means buy 'Cracking the lens open'

It just has a little clip thing, similar to a headlight, holding the globe in.

Unclip, put the new one in without touching the glass and put it back in.

Cheers

Its a term I use, like cracking open a stubby.

Been a while since I've done one...but don't you need to 'crack' the lens off the plastic holder before you can get to the bulb?

...oh and crack a few farkin knuckles while you're at it

[hanra]

Yeah you still have to crack the thing open to replace the lamp.

haha enjoy its a pain in the ass to do and shouldnt be anywhere near as difficult if sum1 with a brain designed the setup on the fogs...

take the stone tray off, Pop the black outer ring off from the bumper (PITA) then unplug the loom and crack the lense open with a pick tool/tiny flathead screwdriver.

reverse procedure.
