Default how to take off corner lamp/ fog light lamp?

Ok, so I have been reading through the forum about corner lights/fog lights conversion but how the heck do I take off the corner lamp? (the one mounted on the bumper).??

do I just use a flat head and pop out that sucker on the side or something?

btw, I have a 92 sc300 so i guess the previous owner did the fog light conversion. So now I have fog lights but one of them is blown so I want to take off the lamp and replace the bulb. any DIY pictures??

I think I search hard enough. Your input please!

If you want to remove the cornering lights I'm pretty sure you have to take off the bumper. It took me about 4hrs to remove and replace my high beams the first time I did it. GL

Its quite simple really. You need to remove the plastic guard underneath the fog light.

I made a huge mistake and removed both the side wall plastic AND guard unerneath the fog lights.

All you need a 10(or was it 12) mm socket and a philips screw driver. Remove all the bolts underneath the fog light plastic thing and also the screws/bolts on the inside of the fender that connect to that plastic. BTW the plastic is a L shape. Then its just a matter of wiggling it out of place. After that you can just stick your head underneath the bumper and see the fog light.

you don't really need to take off the bumper, you can just loosen the flaps on the bottom of the bumper. Just take off the bolts (10mm) off on the bottom of the bumper that holds the two flaps on each side (should just be the ones along the curve of the bumper near the front and goes all the way to the corner of the bumper near your wheel and one holding the side flaps to the middle flap). Just take those out and the flap should b loose enough to pull down and stick your hand in. Just get the flaps loose enough and to stick your hand in, and look for the location of the 3 screws on each foglight and then with a 8mm socket and losen the screws and out comes your fog.
