    Lightbulb Quick question re: fog lights. What tools do I need to replace bulb?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I quickly need to replace a bulb on my fog light. Do I need any special tools other than a flat head/philips screwdriver? Thinking of doing it on the street before I get home. Any insight on installation anything I should know?

    When I put HID in I took out the entire housing (two hex screws) you need a flat head to take out the fog grills and then its just two hex screws. the bulb just twists and pulls out.

    OK, thanks! Don't have a hex tool on me so it'll have to be done at home. Thanks again for the quick reply!

    No need for that. As AudiA4Turbo22 said, take the covers off, reach behind the light, twist the bulb, and you're done. No tools required.
