yup...underneath the bumper you will have a plastic guard with snaps on it...take those out to gain access to the back of the light...i believe there are 2 maybe 3 bolts to take out...once those are out unplug the light and there ya go...anyone correct me if i am wrong

just elaborating on harmbone's inst.
1. get under ur car (no need to jack it) and take out a screw and two plastic "screw" lookin clips
2. take out the underbody mold thats directly under the fog which u just unscrewed
3. unscrew one screw that attatches the fog to the rest of the bumper wit screwdriver
4. take out the plug but be careful cuz its a biotch to unplug
5. push from the back of the whole fog housing (may need to wiggle it from the front) and the whole housing pops out.
6. unscrew the cap in the back..take off the metal clip..take out the bulb and reverse proceedure.

takes about maybe 15 minutes to do..i just did mine last week and its pretty easy...pm me if u need details.

feel free to elaborate/correct if i'm lacking =) good luck!
