I'm having trouble getting to the passenger side foglight housing. After finally figuring out what the hell i was doing, i got to the driver's side ok, but there seems to be some sort of reservoir right by the panel i'm trying to take off on the passenger side. I took off the bolts and plastic clip, but i can't move the panel out of the way.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I can't wait to be able to get both Luminic's in. I tried searching for a while but came up with nothing.

 

the windshield reservoir shouldn't be on your way.... if that's the case you will have to remove it from the top and do the same thing you did on the driver side....

 

it seems like the bolt holding the windshield reservoir in place is also holding the flap in place... so i can't really move the flap without taking out the bolt

 

take the bolt off and go from there..... are you talking about the black cover? once you remove it you should see the fog housing. I replace one last week and I took only 4 screws out........

 

You don't need to take the entire splashguard off. Just remove the tabs and screws/bolts and keep the front of it in place and move it down out of the way to get to the housing.

 

just do what i do. remove your headlight and you have complete access to everything. it's a joke to remove the headlight, and you don't end up lieing down. IMO, makes fog light removal SO MUCH easier.

 

thanks for the replies... on a second look, turns out i unscrewed one of the wrong bolts.. came off about as easily as the driver's side

polo... i never even thought (or heard) of that... i suppose i'll try that next time, thanks!

 

it's okay. i did it the floor way the first time, then after i dropped the car, i thought "there's gotta be an easier way". then one day i was working on my headlights and i just stared down through the hole at my fog and was thinking "well this makes life 1000x's easier"
