Fog light asembly replacement

Hi Everyone,

Been a long time reader of Acurazine and finally joined, so just wanted to say Hi. I have a 3rd Gen 2008 Acura TL Type S, and have gotten very useful information from here.

I have a cracked fog light, and I am wondering, do i need to remove the bumper to change the whole assembly foglight? Thanks in advance for help.

Cheers!!!

Fog Light Replacement

No you don't just turn the wheel inward depending on the side that needs to be replaced remove the two clips in the wheel well pull the plastic back and reach to replace. Takes 5 minutes. YOU DO NOT NEED TO REMOVE THE FRONT BUMPER.
