changing foglight bulbs help
is there any way to change the foglight bulb? the passenger side is burnt and i have to change it, but i have no idea how to take the bulb out. I have the bulb out of the housing, but it's still connected to the metal thing.
The easiest way is to take the bracket off the car. There are two 10mm bolts and one electrical plug. From there, you have two small phillips screws holding the housing together. Once you get that off, the bulb just has a little spring deal in there and you are done.
Oh, don't touch the new bulb...

No, that foam stuff is like a heat shield. Don't cut the wires, but pull back the foam (might have to cut it slightly, like with an X-acto knife) and there is a small plug in there.

Sounds like a job for PB BLASTER!!!!!!!!!
