replacing fog lights

I have looked at every possible place on the car to find an easy way to replace my stock fog light, the only way i can tell is removing the bottom cover of the bumper if there is an easier way to do this could someone please tell me (when i bought it, there was no manual)

thanks jeff

On my '97, just remove the black plastic trim on the inboard (center of car) side of the light. Then remove the 2 10mm bolts holding the foglight assembly in. Whole foglight will come out for bulb replacement or actual assembly replacement.

You need to remove the finisher piece (the small piece mounted on the inside of each light - 95-96 anyway) by pushing up and then removing. Then remove the screw that is now exposed and the light can be removed.

Replace bulb or light assembly and reassemble in reverse order.
