OEM Fog lights screws...

Post by ethand »

My foggies havent been working properly (very very very dim... only visable if you look right into the lens at night!) and I've been told it sounds like an earthing problem, but before I try re-earthing them, I thought I'd check the bulbs them selves.. I've unscrewed teh bolts which hold the foggies into the bumper, but my little tiny screws that hold the lens on are so rusted that they wont un-screw at all... can any one help here???
Cheers

well here's a link to some pics of how they come apart: http://www.uk-mx3.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1813" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

If the screws are that bad, then you may have to try and use a pair of pliers to twist them out... as you can see from the pics you can't get to the bulb since it's inside the plastic housing that attaches to the bumper... good luck with that...
