Replacing the fog lights on my 00 Maxi
To all those people who thought it was easy, its not! when i look under my car there is a plastic piece on each side that is in my way of the lights. when i unscrew the two screws on the one side the plastic piece still remains in its place. Is this really complicated or am I just making it harder than it seems?

Take the screws and push tabs that hold the plastic fender cover off. That plastic is real flexible, so just bend it out of your way. The fog light housing has one screw on it, at the 6 o'clock position, unscrew that. Now, push and wiggle the entire fog housing out from the back. It is a tight fit, so dont be afraid to push on it pretty hard. Once it is out, disconnect the wire harness and change the H3 bulb. Jack up the front end it needed for more room.....PM me if you need more specifics

keep it simple
I believe there should be a writeup in How-to. check it out.
I haven't done it myself, but I remember someone posted that its very easy when you take out your head light from the top, then you can reach your foglights.
good luck.

I've done it without removing the headlights and didn't need to jack the front end up (though that would've made things easier). Overall, I thought the job was pretty easy, the only hitch being the plastic pieces mentioned in the original post...took me a few extra minutes to figure what was still holding them in after the screws were out. Once I found the tabs and "persuaded" the pieces out of the way, the rest was simple.
