Tried to get access to the fog light bulbs by removing the lens frames, but they don't come off when the lens screws are removed. How do you get access? I have been told that the bumper cover may have to come off along with the backing frame. I can't imagine that a simple bulb replacement would require a bumper dis-assembly? Any shortcuts to get the lens covers off and the bulbs out?

QUOTE(914Sixer @ Oct 3 2017, 04:41 PM)  Rubber gasket has to come out. So the heavy black rubber bumper cover has to come off? Is it just the four bolts accessible from the bottom of the cover the only ones that have to be removed to get the cover off? |

The lenses have a rubber gasket behind them to keep the water out. It's just stuck. Keep working.
