Fog light bulb
How do you take out the bulb after removing the grill? I reached behind the housing but just couldn't figure out how to take it out. Any help would be appreciated.

you dont need to remove the grill to get to the fog light.
theres some instructions from a user in there.
Fitting fogs, several methods, use WHKENTO.s method
Philips Crystal Vision in fogs, great match! (pics)
just incase that link doesnt work just go to the DIY section of the forum !

remove the grill that covers the fog light and when you reach the bulb harness on the back you just twist it to unlock it. very easy

I can confirm that you simply remove the mest covering by loosening the 3 Torx T15 (I believe off the top of my head) and then reaching behind. You then will feel the bulb plug, you simply twist it to the left I think (Towards the driver's side of the car in the U.S.) I had to use more force than I would have imagined was required.
Then I simply used a flathead screwdriver to pry the light from the socket (it is in there pretty hard and my finger nail alone couldn't do it). And hten just replaced the light & was good to go...
On a side note, I have to replace my entire housing, does anyone know if this is possible from the front or do I have to go through the wheel well?
