There is NO SCREW in front of foglights...reach down..squeeze the plastic catch..turn..pull out..I have done it probably 6-8 times now...easy.

there is a screw on top of the fog light, so what are you saying its as simple as reaching in grabbing the light, twisting it and it pops out? sorry but im new at this trans-am thing im an ex-mustang man..........

Easiest way I had, pop the headlights up, reach down and turn and pop it out. Takes 5 minutes to do.

The easiest way i found was to use the trap door and reach in there and untwist it out and replace, dont forget not to touch the bulb or you will be doing it again.
