Question Replace fog lights

One of my fog lights went out; is there a step-by-step to replace or is it very easy?

Also, does PIAA make some that I can use to replace these?

Should take about 15 min to replace both bulbs. Very simple.

I dont mean to throw anyone off but since fog lights are the topic I was just wondering....
I bought a set of Audi S4 HID bulbs+ballasts (so the seller told me), I dont know how to distinguish them but I know they're HID's. I should have figured this out b4 I bought them, but it was a deal I couldn't refuse. Is it possible for me to install them as fogs without causing any damage?

LOL

HIDS would melt the housings in about 20 minutes.

Remember they are plastic housings, designed to work with 5 watt bulbs.

Oh well I guess I just replace them for my high beams. Or is that another I'm thinking of doing? Thanks for the feedback.
