you gotta jack up your car.. remove about 2 outside plating.. open the fog lamp holder.. remove clips.. oh and make sure you have the right tools to do these.. because you have very very very little space to move your hands.

I have Silverstars and they are the same as PIAAs. No need to spend more money.

I haven't had the chance to replace my fogs. I have ion crystal Philips bulbs that I want to install.

Btw, the manual says to access the bulbs through the wheel wells. Is that what you mean? You will need to turn the wheels to get more space. Turn right to access driver's; left for passenger's.

It's easier to jack the car up, i just did it with my foglights, i tried it without jacking it up at first but it's a pain so just lift it off the ground and you should be all set. I suggest you get a fine tip philips head screw driver.. mine was used and it actually stipped out one of the bolts... :-/ But the headlights are easy to do.. just gotta make sure your car is cooled off first
