How to change the fog light bulb?
Sorry if this is old news, but I started to search for a post and found 11 pages related to 'fog lights', most dealing with broken screws. I have a more basic question: how do I get at the bulb to change it?
I undid the two screws on either side of the left fog light and pulled off the little white plastic trim pieces. Then I tried to undo the two retaining screws on the lens itself; one came right out, the other spins in place. Before I attack the non-extracting screw, is this the correct method to get at the fog light bulb? The lens didn't seem to be loosening at all, is it just stuck on there? My concern is that there's something more to swapping this bulb and I don't want to break anything.
Thanks in advance.

two screws release the unit from the body. The other one is used to adjust the aiming of the light. After the unit is removed from the body, the bulb is held in with a couple of clips that when squeezed together release their hold on the bulb metal mount. Pull the wire clips from the bulb and reverse the process.
