Flat Blade Screwdriver
10mm Wrench
Change the fog light bulbs. We've got our vehicle up on the lift, but you can do this on the ground.
I'll take a small, flat-bladed screwdriver and remove this clip. You would have to undo this 10 mm bolt. Ours on the splash shield part where it goes through the bolt or around the bolt has broken, so I'm able to just pull it down.
The bulb is right here at the back of the fog light housing. You can unclip it. Pull the connector off. Turn the bulb counterclockwise. Take the bulb out.
This is an H11 bulb. We're going to reinstall it. Turn it clockwise. Once it goes into the slots, we'll lock it. Plug it back into the connector, and the bulb is changed.
Place our cover back up. Click on there. Find the hole for the push pin. If this bolt can be removed, now is the time to reinstall it.

Why you Should Replace Not Restore Headlights
See why replacing your cloudy headlights with new ones is always better than refinishing them Why should you replace your headlights and not clean or refinish them? Three reasons: It's a simple fix, it increases visibility, and it enhances the overall look of your vehicle. Headlights are made from a polycarbonate plastic that can be damaged by UV rays from the sun or suffer pitting caused by road debris light salt and rocks. If you look closely at an old set of headlights, you'll see that the lens is full of micro-cracks. This is called crazing. This crazing, along with pinning, will turn your headlights from crystal clear to hazy yellow and it cuts the output in half, making it very difficult to see at night. It also makes your car look old and dated. With parts from 1AAuto.com and our how-to videos, you can make your vehicle look new and stay safe on the road.
