Could someone point me in the right direction as to the easy way to remove one of my front fog lights . It's a pre facelift with the extra lower lip . Is it possible to get to the rear of the fog light to remove it or is it a case of removing the lip or the whole bumper ? Any help would be very much appreciated.
 
Steve.
Its easiest to drop the bumper off the front of the car, then its easy acces.
it is possible to just drop the front part of the undertray but it means your laying on floor to do the job.
 
Thanks mate, I should of asked you when I saw you this morning lol. I did have a go at getting the front lip off earlier but even after removing all the bolts it still wouldn't come off , I know it has some double sided tape holding it on as well but are there any clips too ( I don't want to pull on it and snap something ) .

I want to get the broken light out so it makes it easier to match up a replacement.
 
As Adam said the easiest way is to take the bumper off.But im sure you can get to them from under the car but its hard.There are 2 bolts either side of the light unit that needs to be unscrewed /Pull the lamp connector out and the light should come out towards the front of the car.
 
Thanks Brett , I was hoping to get away with not removing the bumper but since it looks like they come out through the front I will need to remove the extra lower lip too ( which may well be easier off the car as it happens ) at least I should get a better idea as to what holds the lip to the bumper lol.

Best of luck Steven if you have time do a DIY as this will be great info for TA ;)
 
I'll have ago at it on Monday when I can get the front end up on ramps which should make taking pics alot easier . Once I've tackled the fog light I'll have ago at changing my drives side drive shaft plus check the wheel bearing and shaft shaft bearing ( the list of bits to do is getting longer ) lol.
