How to change front fog lamp bulbs on 204 Sport?
Hi all, I need some help on how to change the front fog light bulb on my 204 Sport (the bulb blew). Do I need to pry open the front circular clear cover, or need to take it out from behind the front bumper?

Use a torx screw to unscrew the three screws that are securing the mesh around the fog lamp. As soon as you remove the mesh you can replace the bulbs from behind. Then do the process in reverse.

Right hand drive, I live in Australia can you help thanks If you want to only remove the bulb you need to lie under the car remove the clips that holds the wing liner to the bumper and sneek your hand between the liner and bumper and rotate the bulb firmly till it dismantles u can see it through the lens of the fog light. If you want to remove the whole thing it is kept in place by 4 plastic clips that hold it to the bumper similar to the clips that hold the front grill. You need to sneek your hand to the back of the lamp and press each clips gently one at a time pushing the housing forward as u push the clips to dislodge it from the bumper you press on the clips towards the centre of the lamp be careful not to break the clips... |

Yes I can help, you have the model where the grill has no screws only one hole with an allen key, do not mess with it because it aligns the light.

Thanks for the info, I was going to replace them but haven't had a chance as yet, now I know how I'll take another look at doing so. Thanks once again Phil |
you can't just replace the bulb. You have to replace the entire lenze assembly. Correct me if I am wrong...
