Hi there! need some help!

Fog lights are pretty easy to replace. There are mud flaps on the inside area of the fog lights on each side. Pull those back and grab in there and twist and pull out the bulb. You can also go from the back of the bottom peice of the bumper which is a little tougher.
Whatever you do, dont touch the bulb with your bare skin. It can shatter the glass or drasticly reduce the bulbs life.

If you look at the wattage the pull, its a bit higher that stock bulbs 80/100...I had some similar to those before and they burned my headlight wiring harness! Don't put those on your stang!

You have to use silverstar 880s for your fog lights. You can get em on ebay for half the price you can in stores.
