I don't have the link but it is simple.

Raise the headlights (turn fogs off) then turn switch back to middle position.

Remove the black housing from each headlight assembly (3 screws)

Reach down through the opening between frame and headlight assembly.

Twist the fog light socket, pull out the old bulb and disconnect from connector & replace the bulb.

I would suggest using an 885 bulb (50Watt) to replace the stock bulb.

Good luck

I put mine up on ramps and changed them using the access panel below. I broke my wrist long ago and was not able to make the movement needed from the top. It was much easier from the bottom. I also switched to the 885 bulbs at the time. Good luck!!

I agree with Allzwell. I found it to be simple from the top. Just make sure you don't drop the screws when you remove the cover. They are hard as H*** to find down in the bottom. I know...
