This can happen at times. Just hit the back of the foglight assembly with you hand or tap it with a hammer. It will come out as long as you have the bolt removed from the bottom of the assembly.

Actually, on the '02, it would be two 10mm nuts. Smacking it from behind will work as long as they are both off the back of the housing.

It sounds like you forgot to unplug the wires at the back of the fogs.
