Hey wait...I bought these for 60 in MAy...why did the left one burn out last night? Watch out with the PIAAs Ionic Crystals. Maybe I had a busted set???? I want an exchange or something...

First time I've seen yellow fogs on a '97-'01 ES, and I gotta say that they look great, especially with the black cladding and chromed grille!

you don't have to take the housings out if you come from behind the actual lamp.
The front end should be jacked up about a foot so that you can move around. Remove the back, then the clip and then the bulb can be wiggled out and unpluged. Orient the new bulb in the same direction as the exiting bulb, hook it back up and etc, etc.

I actually posted detailed step by step directions about a year ago. do a search on 98 fog lights and my name, it should come up.

The hardest part is removing the large plastic splash guard that is under the front end. Easily done.

let me know if you need more detailed help.

Lexusk8 has also changed out his fog bulbs, he can help you too.

Sorry, don't you just hate typing a post, then when you return, you find the other guy was typing too....and he beat you. oh well, great minds thinking alike.
