vrd Foglight bulb burnout...

So, my left side vrd foglight is burnt out. I had my foglights professionally put in, so I didn't have the knowledge to wire or try it. I need to replace the bulb, so my question is can I do it? how do I do it? And diy with pics or detailed walk through would be very appreciated so I can do this myself lol...thanks in advance.

Seriously it is not that hard, the bulb on the fog light is held on with one screw. There are 2 wires that attach to the light. You can either go through where wheel is or you can take of the splash guards right under the fog light and pop it out from there.

Not a fan of yellow foglights. I perfer a clean white matching the head lights. These bulbs that came with the fog light are 55 watt..

will 80 watt cause any burn out issues in the wires?
