you'll prolly have to take the bumper off to get to them unfortunately.

if it wasnt raining outside id go check for you...but i highly doubt that you have to take the bumper off.. you can probly reach around underneath and there might be a screw or bolt holding it in place...i could be wrong but it just seems like the logical way that it would be installed

1. Take out the headlight assembly.

2. remove the headlight assembly bracket that holds the headlight then look down in the hole that is there and twist the bulb in the fog light assembly until you feel it come loose, i believe it is to the left, lefty loosey...then pull out of fog light assembly.
3. Disconnect the bulb from the plug.
4. plug the new bulb in to the wires.
5. put new bulb into fog light socket, twist to right...righty tighty
6. put headlight assembly bracket and headlight assembly back in.
7. go buy a case of beer with the extra money you save not paying 300 dollars for the STEALERship to do this work for that ridiculous charge.
9. send me a beer as well.

Protip: Don't use the "Similiar Threads" feature.

Another Protip: Delete System32 to make your computer surf CobaltSS.net without the pesky Database errors.
