    Default fog light bulb change

    I've got a 95 525i --> how do you access the fog light bulb to change it??
    the passenger side one is out. I don't want to break the trim trying to get at it.. the bentley manual is pretty lame on it..

    thanks..

    That's the way I'll be able to do it next time. After having taken out the full assembly, I know now what it's like, and will know where to reach for the bulbs the next time I have to.

    I gave the car a reacharound as mentioned above. Simplest way to do it. Thanks for the advice.. Took about 10 minutes..
