Default GP GXP fog light bulb burnt out

I know on my '05 GTP it was a 5 min job,looks a lil tougher on the gxp... what is the EZ way to change out the bulb? I read something about pulling out the headlamp & reaching down?

Quick and easy, pull the lower grille out, there're pulling points above the projectors, and the bulbs are right there.

Alternatively, on the underside of the car there's a little section you can cut out to get to them. I recommend the other way.

Yep, there's a video on my YouTube about it but I can't get it to load at the moment.

It's been posted here a few times.

YouTube account is prkrjstn87, I think. Mobile view needs an edit button...

Driving lights as in the headlights? I bet, you mean turn signal, I'm sure you can reach it from there but it is easier to go from the top. Just pop the headlight assembly out and it's right there like you read. Easy as pie.

2 flaps , 2 clips.
Look underneath the front bumper.
It is a 5 minute job.

^^ if the fogs are anything like an impala, going from the bottom is a PITA, I could barely fit my hand in the opening

Take twenty seconds to remove the headlamp and you got all the space you need!
