Default Fog Light Replacement

I have a fog light burnt out and was wondering if anyone knew how to replace the bulb. Is it fairly straight forward? This is the second bulb that needed to be replaced. Have you found that these bulbs burn out quickly?


Thanks

Without totally removing the grill, you CAN get behind the grill if you don't have King Kong hands by detaching the top half and tilting it while wedging your hand in. The bulbs are pretty simple to replace at that point.

Unless you're runing the fogs full-time, they should hardly ever burn out. But if you're one of those people that think that looking like something out of Close Encounters is cool, then yeah, you'll blow lights more frequently.

Get out the little book in your glove box. Your owners manual tells how to change the bulbs. I changed mine before I knew about the procedure in the manual and I worked a lot harder than I would have had to. Ain't no thang.

Um, can you read?
If so, Owners Manual.
But this seems to be out of your
range of mechanical knowledge if
you are asking....

You might have to take out one of the bulbs and look. My '06 GT took an H10
