after screws are out, pull the inside out then slip towards the inside to remove the housing:

this is the last pic, i think the process is pretty much idiot proof just be gentle to the top housing part because if you damage it too much you will not be able to get the bulb back in (this isn't very likely so don't worry about it)

bulb in, twist counter-clockwise to remove, clockwise to re-install:


p.s. sorry mike for uploading so many pics

Your link above only gave a half pic that missed your car. I would certainly appreciate a pic to check out your LTune suspension.

Question trade??

does anyone want to trade the clear fogs for yellow ones??? i'll pay shipping charges


i think that it's gonna have to be housing bulbs and wires...because the bulbs are different (i think)


the clear fog housing (or at least mine) use the 9006 bulb as a fog light....do the yellow ones also do that??

Joe, they use the same bulbs. Its the yellow sleeve that makes it yellow. All you have to do is switch housings w/another person. If u want yellow fogs, i would also suggest buying yellow foglight bulbs.

trust me, buy some MAX GOLD yellow fog lights. Its twice as bright as the factory yellow. I have the clear fog lenses and use the MAx GOLD fog lamps.

I have pics but they turned out crappy cuz I don't have a digital camera. I will ask my friends if they have a D-C
