I've bought the bulb, but it's not obvious to me how to get access to the light to change it out. Thanks in advance.

Well this took me some time, but I felt really stupid when I figured it out (with a little help from a friend who drives an Audi A4). There's a black plastic frame around the fog lamp that from a distance looks like it's part of the huge plastic shroud that covers the front of the car. In reality, this frame is only about 3 inches high and about 12 inches long, and can be removed without tools. There are 4 or 5 plastic prongs that hold the thing in that you can work loose with your fingers (be careful, I broke one of them). Once this black frame is out, the lens can be removed with 3 phillips screws, and replacing the bulb is pretty self-explanatory.
Hope this helps!
