Angry Fog lights??

How the hell do you take the bumper/fog lenses out?? I look at the manual and I removed the screw under the bumper and I tried to pull it out, but no matter how hard I tried, it just won't come out. WTF!! Any ideas??

I already changed my foglight bulb. Heres what u gotta do. Unscrew the 10mm screw. And then if you look on top of screw, you could see the whole foglight assembly is clipped onto the car. So you will have to use two fingers press the clip together and the assembly will come out.

good luck

Starmanone,

Why did you change your bulb foglight?
Did you change it for a blue type bulb.
Because the fog light does not math that much with the Xenon Headlight.

I am looking for a buld that could looks closer to the Xenon Headlight.

Thanks

As far as I know, after removing the 10mm screw, I can feel the lense being loose, but how do you go about getting it out from the bumper. I tried using a small screw driver, but it still won't do it. You said use two fingers to press on the clip, are you referring to the bulb??

I used a small screw driver, wrapped it in cloth and just pryed it out. Come at it from the middle of the car.

I believe the PIAA Platinums are a pretty good match for the HID.....

You need to work it fro behind, and push from the outside.

I went with a PIAA Platiunum super white.

Did you get the 9000 series or the H3?

If you have a underbody kit for the the front lip, do you have to remove it first? I looked underneath and found no hole to even get at the fogs. Please advise
