HELP Fog lamp removal...sigh

Ok, so yes...I did a search, found 5 threads that way, and the links in the stickies are dead, soooooo...

Whn removing fog lamps, I see that there are 3 pins holding the lamp housing in place. Two up top, one on the bottom...how the fudge do I get it out?!

very detailed...very easy...took me 15 minutes the first time i did it (not at ALL mech. inclined) and the connector on one fog even got stuck which took 5 mins. to break loose...


edit: here is the link to the HOW-TO: http://www.innerbean.com/housecor/piaa_fogs.html
