    What's the best way to change a fog light? From the back of the light, or front? What do I need to unscrew to change the bulb? I've climbed underneath to take a look, but it was a bit difficult to tell exactly what needed to be disconnected.

    The best way is to unscrew the connector from the the back of the fixture. Once you do that the bulb will be in the connector. When you put the new bulb in the connector try not to touch the bulb with your fingers by using a clean soft cloth. When putting the connector with bulb back into the fixture, be careful not touch the bulb on the edges of the opening as not to scratch it.

    Yup unscrew the bulb a 1/4 turn to the left from the back of the fog light
    The connector and bulb will come out, pull the bulb out and put in a new one without touching the bulb as said above
    Align the bulb and screw it a 1/4 turn to the right until it locks in... DONE

    Thanks for the advice. Hopefully should have some snow melt to give me a chance to climb under the car without freezing on ice.
