Hid x2 gotta keep the color the same, unless you are going yellow then get a 3000K so you still will have the same out put as the regular lights.

HID fog lights are incredibly expensive.

Bulbs are 9006 so they would be cheaper than the hid fogs you can pickup.

Default Can I ask a potentially stupid question?

How do I get the fog lights out so that I can change the bulbs? Do I remove the whole unit from behind the bumper or is there a way to remove the cover from the front? Any guidance with this would be appreciated.

You should also seal the fog lights again because everybody I see with the fog lights, theres like water in the housing.

Just jack up the front of the car and go thru the bottom. No need to take of the whole bumper to get to the bulb. And go with HID fogs. THats what I did and they are amazing!

Hey Matty, how exactly do I pull the fog lights from the bumper?

Well if you want to take out the fogs, then you have to take of the bumper and the fogs are clipped in. Just push on the tabs that hold it in. You might be able to jack up the car and try pushing on the tabs from underneath but i havent tried it. Why do you need to take them out?

I just want to change the bulbs. I had the factory fog lights installed by the dealer and have no clue as to how to get them out to change the bulbs, that's why I was asking.
