Default Changing fog light bulbs

Three weeks after the left foglight went the right followed. Changed it following advice from the forum. Opened headlights and removed bezel. Then opened hood and was able to get one hand down to back of foglight. This time though found it much easier to remove wiring harness socket with bulb still in the housing. Then rotate bulb in socket remove and replace. Clip socket on and replace bezel. Easier this way with just one hand .As always don't touch lamp with your hands just base to keep bulb from early burnout. 893 bulb about $6 at Autozone half what dealer wanted. You might want to change them in pairs as to avoid having to do the other side a few weeks later Happy Easter everybody!
