Default Fog Light Out

I need to replace my right fog light bulb. I have the bulb but need to know how to install it. I did notice there is a torx screw to the left of the light but not sure if that is used in replacing the bulb.

Raise the headlights. Remove the plastice headlight shroud.

Reach down under the headlight and grasp the bulb fixture (find it by feeling for the wire and follow it to the fixture) twist the fixture to the left (lefty loosy) and pull. Replace the bulb and reverse the process.

If you can't get your hand down behind the headlight (big fists), then you'll have to do it from below.

Raise the front end. **** the steering wheel to give you room in front of the tire. Remove the plastic shroud that covers the area in front of the wheel well on that side. Grasp the brake cooling duct, pull it back from the front opening and swing it to the side. You'll have clear access to the fog driving light fixture.

you should be able to change the fog light without removing the headlight bezels. Just reach down under the headlight and turn the socket counter clockwise and r @ r
