Easiest way:Reach underneat the bumper, and over the plastic splash guiards. Find the bulb socket. Twist the wire harness and bulb (the bulbs are L shaped as you see). I can't remember if it's clockwise or counterclockwise, but it will only go one way. Turn it 90 degrees and pull out the bulb.Release the little clip that holds the socket to the bulb. Swap bulbs. To reinstall, slide the bulb into the socket, making sure that it's at that 90 degree turn, and twist to tighten. Twist it until you feel it strongly snap/click into place.Both bulbs turn the same direction (clockwise/counterclockwise).If you can, it's easier to slide under the front of the car on your back. Less stretching.

Yeah, I don't fancy sliding on my back under the bumper in this weather though lol, a little cold. But yeah the bulbs are L shaped, Canadian Tire did have the 9006(?) I'll get it done though cause the difference with the headlights is worth it.

The fog light number wasn't listed in the owners manual if I remember correctly, does anyone know the number?

9006 for normal fog plug and play.. but you can modify 9005 to fit and they will give you a bit more light 10watts more but the beam may need to be adjusted.
