Just raise the car a bit and look under there. The socket is a twist off and the bulb plugs in. Housing doesnt need to come out.

Look in back of the light(under the car). On mine there are two nuts(10mm) that have to be taken off to take the foglight housing out, which allows you to easily replace the bulb.

Cheers,

CJ

Agree with Eric... Don't remove the housing. Just twist the bulb socket carefully. It may take a little force due to road grit but it will come out. Also, when replacing the bulb be sure not to touch the glass with your fingers. Oils in your skin will shorten the bulb life.

Another tip when putting it back in. Look through the front of the lens while your trying to turn the socket back in. It makes it alot easier to align the tabs with the notches.
