Fog Light Change How To

Hi All:

Just wondering if there is a location you might be able to point me to for the procedure on replacing the fog lights... I have an 01 AE... I got up under there to look but it looks a little strange. Thanks in advance!!

Regards,
Wade

pretty sure its in your owners manual

1. remove splash guards
2. remove the 2 bolts on the back of each housing
3. disconnect wire harness
4. push housing out forward
5. replace bulb

Actually the 01 has one bolt and one clip... But all else is what sooner said. Real simple.

Check housecor's how to for pics. The only diff between his and yours would be you have the one bolt + clip.

FYI: if your fogs have never been replaced then it might take some elbow grease to get them to come out, i know the first time i did mine i needed a soft hammer on the back of the housing to get her to move.

Thanks! Yea mine have never been removed... there was all kinds of funk up in the cover. I had to use a small bar to nudge the lights out, but you guys were right... very easy! Thanks again!!
