piaa bulb 19224
just get on your back under the bumper and you will see how to get to it. you pull back some rubber weather gaurd trim stuff, the take out a screw or two and the bulb is right there.
its easy.
oh and piaa 19224 is not an OEM match, buy a set and swap out both of them. they are much brighter and whiter than the stock bulbs.

None of the above.
Take a look at the inside of the black grille inlet with a flashlight and a mirror makes it easier. If you take a long narrow phillips screw driver, you loosen the screw. It is captured so it will not fall out. Once it is loose, you pull out the lens and replace the bulb.
No getting dirty and no climbing under the car. I can change in less than 2 minutes.
Literally 120 secs...

the first time I changed it I went under the car, took a long time and was painful.
The second time I did it by using the screw driver and loosen the fog light housing first, VERY EASY! Loosen the fog light housing is definitely the way to go.
It is only hold in place by 1 screw, after you loosen it, it snaps off.

On the TL, there's an access hole underneath the bumper, and it's a 10mm screw. Take that out, and the entire foglight housing pops out. Unplug the power cord, loosen three small screws, twist the foglight and take it out.
Reading this thread, I can tell it's a wee bit different on the CL.

using a long screwdriver to access to the screws and pulling out the fogs lights... search for a DIY, there are plenty on the forum that even give you pictures
