Default Hot to replace fog light bulbs?

well not one but both of my fog light bulbs are burnt out. I was wondering where i might be able to buy replacement bulbs, and how much they would cost. I also need to know how to install them. Is it possible to just swap out the bulbs, or do i have to do anything more complicated than that? anyway thanks alot for any help. btw... I have a camaro if that makes any difference.

I just bought a replacement at wal-mart for about 6 bucks. Its easy to install. I put mine in from the top. Just removed the headlight assembly and reached down from there. Hope this helps.

Pick some up at a autoparts store, will be a few bucks. Easiest way on my 98z was to go under the car, undo the bolt holding the flap to the under body of the car. Once its out, just pull down the plastic flap and reach up, unplug and change the bulb in the socket. Took all of 3-5 mins to do.

just take the 2 bolts out of the panel underneath the car by the little air dam in the front and reach your hand up and turn the bulb counter clockwise i think and it should come right out.

It's 100 times easier from the engine bay....Peek own in there and you'll see how to take them out...They're just like the headlights...Turn the bulb housing and the entire thing pops out of the lense housing.
