 Removing 10mm Bolts |
||
| As I mentioned, it may be possible for you to remove the fog light bulb without any tools. Just grasp the black plastic power connector at the end of the wire loom and twist it 1/4 turn counter clockwise. Mine wasn't turning and I was afraid to break the decade old plastic connector. | ||||
 |
 Two 10mm Bolts |
 Pull Fog Light Forward |
||
| So instead, I removed the two 10mm bolts on the rear of the fog light housing and pushed on the bare bolts to move it forward. Then I pulled the fog light housing all the way out from the front of the car. | ||||
 1/4 Turn Counter Clockwise |
 Burst Fog Light Bulb |
 Black Plastic Connector |
||
| Once the fog light housing is removed, you can easily grasp the white/tan base of the bulb, turn it 1/4 turn counter clockwise, and pull it straight out. Then pop off the black plastic power connector by using a flathead screwdriver. Insert the new # 880 fog light bulb and reverse the steps above. If your bulb burst like mine, be sure to empty out any broken glass pieces from the fog light housing. | ||||
