Front foglight bulb replacement
« on: April 16, 2010, 17:50:37 »
OK, call me a muppet, but I can't see how to get into the n/s front foglight on my ES (factory fitted, bumper mounted).

The handbook doesn't mention it, nor does the Haynes.  Help!

They are not sealed units, you do have to remove the lamp from the bumper and strip it down somewhat, be prepared for rusted nuts and bolts!

You can replace them, ive done it myself :D

get under the car and on the back of the foglamp there is a black cover that you turn halfway to remove.  Bulb is held in with a wire clip that is a bit tricky to remove, you sort of sqeeze the ends togeather and pull.  Once the clip is undone remove the bulb and reassemble.

Hope that helps
