You have to remove/unbolt the splash guards under the bumper...then reach in, unclip the holder, unplug the harness, and pull out the bulb. That's the condensed version. The owners manual lists everything in detail.

when you say harness, is it basically the same set up as the headlights? you disconnect the wire, take of the rubber thing, unclip the harness thing, replace the bulb, then put it back together?? i think i know how to do the splash guard thing cause i watched the body shop take it off when they checked my windshield washer reservior...i forget what tool he used to remove the bolts tho?

2 days? Dang...were you doing it in the dark? placing the bulbs into the assembly was somewhat tough considering you have to match up the notches together.

I am sucha dumbo when it comes to cars. I looked everywhere even under the hood and even tried to squeeze my hand in between the headlights to access the fogs. I had basically given up till i had a bulb flashing in my head to try it from underneath. At least i admit i am a dumbo..i aint like gunman you know. I love plug and play.
