You have two choices, put the car on a lift, remove the splash pan and work your arm up to the foglights and remove two nuts on each light. I ended up removing my front bumper to get at the fog lights. This was on a 1995 C36, it could be different on newer model cars.

Its basically what 2PHAST said. It does NOT pop out. Its a lot of work and you need to raise the car and basically wedge a long screwdriver up to reach the lights. Its actually very annoying. I wished it was like the BMWs where you can just pop it out. Hehe.
