Default Fog Lamp

How do I change the bub in the right side fog lamp on my 98 T/A? The owner's manual doesn't say. Thanks!

go under the car, there are 3 body pins that need to come off. i take them off with a tiny flat head screw driver and pry them down. then once you get the 3 body pins off there are 2 10mm bolts holding the fog ligh thousing in place. take the 2 bolts off, you will have slack to get the wiring off th efog light and be able to pull the fog light out.. Very easy. took me about 5 mins each side..

Thanks. I actually ended up finding an easier way. If you raise your lights, you can just reach down next to the lights and have pretty good access.

Doubt it. I'm 6'5", 220lb. and I have huge hands. It's a little tight to get your hand down there, but once it's in it eliminates a lot of the fog light changing hassle. No unbolting anything, just be careful getting your hand in and out.
