Hi
I am just having problems removing the fog light to place a new bulb in it. Its a 1991 AZ-3, tried removing the two screws at the front but still won't budge. The bottom screw just seems to turn without any results, any suggestions??

Re: Fog light problem
Although I am in Canada, I do have a J-spec bumper with fog lights.
I have taken them both apart as well to clean them. You need to take them apart via a bottom large screw, it also acts as an adjustment screw. Do not take the three small ones on the sides. They hold the lens. You do not want to brake the seal, or they will fog up in the rain. If you can't take it apart conventional way, drop the bumper and get the whole assembly out. Then you would be able to pry them. Sounds like your thread on the main screw is, well, "screwed" or in other words, damaged or stripped. Good luck.

Forgot to mention, make sure you properly re-alight them for proper beam. I also would suggest a yellow fog light bulb. They are H3 format and are very common.
