06 CLS, 06 Chevy ZQ8, 07 Chevy TBSS (05 BMW M3,SOLD, 02 BMW 4.6,SOLD.
On the front bumper lense some people have just pop them out from the outside. Mine were super tight so i jacked the front of the CLS up a bit so i could get to the cover underneath that is bolted on with (6) silver 7 or 8mm bolts and dropped the plastic cover and there they are on the inside. Just twist the bulb socket out and sqeeze the clip on the lense and push out. It took me no longer then 15 min to do both. Good Luck

Are you serious? The dealer really wanted to charge you an hour and a half labor to change your bumper lenses? I would've laughed in their face. It's like a 10 minute job if they are tight.

There is a plastic surround around the fog light held down by three torx screws. remove it and put your arm in to release the clip.

larry's way is the best. but i popped mine from the front. gotta put some fingers muscle into it to pull it out. just look at your clear lenses and it will give you an idea of how the stock ones are inserted. good luck
