Fog Light Installation

I was looking to switch my fog bulbs is the number H7 or H11? Any recommendations?
Also do you change them by lifting the car or just under the hood?

just look at the fog light housing and you will see some screws holding the front black piece on the screws are also black (hex screws)

If you have no experience changing basic auto parts, I would suggest you get some help from someone with more experience before doing anything by yourself to your new benz.

Most of the guides here are relatively simple, but if you have no experience handling car parts, it is very easy to screw up. My 2 cents...

Don't kow what car you have but its H7 for Sport version. Do some seach and you will see what needs to be done. Its not that hard. The hardest part is trying not to touch the bulb with your hand twisted backward as you are re-inserting the bulb You unscrew three screws around the fog light mesh to get to the bulb.
