Installation questions...PLEASE HELP

crashGTR1 · Feb 28, 2004

Hey everyone. I recently ordered my first round of mods, which I received today. I decided to start small, and got replacement bulbs for my fog lights, and clear reflector lenses for the sides of the rear bumper. How do I open up the fog lights to change the bulbs? Also, how do I pop out the old reflectors without messing up my paint trying to pry them out? I tried a few things, but it was getting late. Forgive me on this, as I'm more familiar with engine work. Please help. Thank you.

The foglight is easy just look underneath where the fog light is and you'll see where wiring harness runs into the fog light housing. Twist the bulb counter clockwise and it should come right out. Swap bulbs and twist it back in. Sorry but I can't help you with the side reflectors.

Do I have to take the fog light lense off at all?

No all the work is done in the back of the housing.

You don't pry the relectors out. Open your trunk and remove the panel on the side of the trunk and look down toward the bottom and you will see the back of the reflector. You will have to remove some clips.

Oh, wow. Thanks. That could've been ugly had I done things my way.

Well, I took everything apart, but I didn't know they would be friggin' bolted in and I didn't have the right wrench for the job, so I couldn't get the old ones out yet. Is there any easier way than trying to angle a wrench into that tiny little access port? Thanks.
