IF you have a small arm you can raise the hood, turn the headlights on, then to "park" leaving the headlights up. Disconnect the battery if you wish. Remove the plastic bezel around the headlight assy. on the side of the discrepant fog light bulb. Reach in, unplug the wire harness and twist the bulb assy. out. One of mine was pretty tough and took a little help to get "unlocked".

Whatever you do, just dont listen to Anthony01. That is some BAD advice! Just do what the 3rd post says. Its simple. Go to Wal-Mart for the bulb.
