I noticed some water in the right fog light and sure enough the right side lamp doesn't work. Is it to be completely replaced or can I replace a bulb? Also, how can I keep them waterproof, or at least water resistant? And no, I'm not taking them off -at least not at this point. Thanks !   Kristopher March (Apexdisco) Member Username: Apexdisco Post Number: 127 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Tuesday, July 08, 2003 - 05:36 pm:    anyone?   Don E.

If you do a search, there's a thread that describes how to remove the fog light assembly. I don't remember all the details, but basically, there's a combination of two nuts and two phillips-head screws that will free the assembly. Then you remove the Torx screws on either side of the lamp housing and slide out the lens/reflector. The bulb is accessable then. You can probably figure it out if you crawl up under the front spoiler and look. Good luck!

In the meantime, does anyone on here have a part number for the the bulb?   Kristopher March (Apexdisco) Member Username: Apexdisco Post Number: 129 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Tuesday, July 08, 2003 - 10:58 pm:    Did a search 60 days back with no luck. I'm sure I'll figure out how to do it. Next question is, what would make for a good seal? Any ideas? I was thinking some type of caulking? I have no idea.   Don E.

You can get 'em pretty much anywhere.   Kristopher March (Apexdisco) Member Username: Apexdisco Post Number: 133 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 11:22 am:    Thanks - just picked up one from Autozone. Still looking for a solution to water resist these lights.
