1) Take off the plastic fog light bumper housing thing to give you more room to work.
2) Unplug the fog light wiring harness.
3) Unscrew the phillips head screw holding the metal fog light housing on. Swear a lot and use lots of PB Blaster because it's probably rusted on, and Mitsu should've used a bolt instead. Pull the entire housing out the front, if you don't completely strip the screw head first.
4) Take the fog light housing to your workbench and unscrew the little phillips screws from the back of the housing.
5) Unplug the bulb from the wiring harness. Unclip the shiny metal clip that holds the bulb in place and replace bulb.
6) Installation is reverse of removal.

ill be able to help you once i get back home and fix mine because mine just died

Your looking at the wrong screws it is not the star ones. There are phillips ones but they are not worth to take off IMO mine were stipped anyways. You should see 10mm? bolts all around the housing take all of those off and then you can pull the whole thing out and change the bulb

i went at those bastard foglights for a good 2 hours with no success once. I found it to be less stressful and much much quicker to take it to the dealer, pay them 20 bucks, and have them replace it in 30 minutes.

That makes me feel so much better. I thought I was so dumb because I couldn't get one out. And I unscrewed every screw I could find.

i took them out and replace them look at my sig. :D one of the few who did it . lol. but it was a pain i took out the foglights and did it on my workbench. it took me an hour and half.

ok thanks... it was just the bulbs :D... its easy! took me 10 min to take it off :) and put it in...
