Default Fog light bulb swap...how!!!!

Ok......ordered my yellow bulbs. Took a look in the wheel well. On the very outside edge i see a few small nuts/bolts. No problem there. But in the center in front of the tire I see a number of flat pin looking thingys. A few of them go thru a flat metal bracket.

Obviously not sure how to remover the panel.

Help.............please.

Like it was said above there is an access panel underneath. It's much easier to access with the front of the car in the air. You take off 2 bolts in front of the wheel/tire, then 3 or 4 below-right behind the ends of the air dam.

I'm sure somebody else will post pictures. I'm not much of a DIY guy, but I was able to do it with some ramps.

Good Luck.

Taking off that access panel under the front fascia is going to be the easiest way to get to the fog lights.

Just took a peek under the nose. Looks pretty simple. Not sure why I thought you had to go thru the wheel well.
