Post by: Russ_leeds on May 25, 2010, 11:19:13 pm

Is it possible to change the fog light without removing the full bumper? mine got smashed when driving so need to replace. is there a how to guide? tried searching to but no luck? :sad1:

Just remove the one screw holding the fog grill in, pull out the grill and you can then remove the fog light.
iirc it's held in place by three screws.

Nope just need to remove the fog light cover which is a 20 torx i think then it will just pop off... Behind that their will be 3 25 torx holding the fog light in. Just unplug and then install the new one.

Should only take 5 mins very simple..

Hope this helps :happy2:
