Does anyone know how to replace oem fog light bulbs for the 94-95. I hope I don't need to take off the bumper. Also, H3 bulbs have that wire too. I dont think there is enough room for my hands to fit to replace them. Also replacing these bulbs should be easy for even regular people just like the rest of the bulbs on the car are easy to replace. Anybody know an easy way.

Sorry, but i think you have to take the front bumper off. I had the front bumper off and found that i could only change the bulbs with it off, And on the projector headlights that little side light off the headlight, thats harder then crap to change also. But good luck man. I could be wrong tho. But i can't change mine without taking the bumper off.

What about taking the plastic cover off the bottom end of the front bumper or just sticking your hand between the front bumper and the radiator? There should be an easier way because factory replacement of just bulbs should be easy for even girls. Its a B**** taking off the bumper. I'm sure people who have installed the same fogs know.

Well you might be able to take the bolts off under the car and move the plastic undercarrage and might be able to get to them.

Ummm well if you talking about the same OEM fogs I have, then I am pretty sure u dont have to take of the front bumper. My fogs are just held by 1 screw. Just un screw that screw and un-wedge it out of there. There should be a OEM clip in the back, then just un-clip it... the fog should be totaly off now.

Hmm, do you think its the same as the early model fogs? I know the 94 fogs have this wide metal bracket that surrounds almost the whole back of the fog. Lemme go take a look. Thanks for the help. Anyone else with ideas or who have done it before, Id appreciate any suggestions.

I'll send you some pics of my brackets. Mine are technically JDM... but I would think they would be the same. Ummm curious.

It seems like your brackets are different. But here are some pics of mine.

Here you can see the screws in the inner sides of the fogs/brackets. I just unscrew these an whammy!

Here is a rear pic. The screws again are in the inner sides of the fogs.

The other (outter sides) are just kinda wedged/held in place by a notch in the brackets. This probably won't help, simply because if it was just a matter of one screw you would have done it by now. Anyways good luck.

Maybe mine are from a different year or something.

My fogs are exactly like yours. Not sure which screw off though.

wait a minute, on that first pic, is it the screw on the top corners...just 1 screw? take a look at my profile, same fogs as yours.

haha, I thought it was the screw at the top corners around the gray piece. I actually found them when I got home yesterday. In the earlier pic you put, those black screws aren't visible. Thanks again for your help.
