Type that into Google. It might lead you back here, but hopefully you'll find what you need. That's what I did when I needed to change out the side marker light on our 99 4-Runner (which was a b**** to do). Of course, the search didn't lead me here for that problem, but you know what I mean.

You can't. They don't make them yet. Will get back to you in +/- 200 years.

Haha, I just got that. But anyway, dude, look at my reply just above.

I am really suprised at the rude resposes. A question is only dumb when it is not asked!!

From now on I will avoid the "forum" and go to folks who are a bit more considerate.

Thanks

They are just teasing you. Its expected of a new guy. No hard feelings

The replacement of the foglights in the Altima is fairly straight forward. Surprisingly so! You can do this in 10 mins or less.

Crawl under your front bumper and remove the front splash guard from underneath the bumper. You'll need a flat head screw driver to remove the tabs connecting it to the bumper. After this is removed you now have easy access and a straight shot to the foglight in question. If my memory serves me correctly, the bulb is simply held in by a squeeze bracket. Unplug the bulb from the harness and simply undo the bracket and turn. Voila! Replace the bulb and reinstall your splash guard and you're good to go.

Let me know if you have any other questions. Hope you stick around!

Seriously? A little bit of teasing like this is nothing (you should see what they say to Nala in genchat), if you can't stand it perhaps you shouldn't be on the internet. It's a scary, rude place out there on these interwebs.

In all honesty though, after looking through the responses they're not actually rude (though the +/- 200 years one was pretty funny). They all do offer sound advice; the search button here may lead you to an already existing thread, and could prevent repeat threads. Just remember not to take anything personally on here and you'll be fine, after all we are all part of this forum because we love our cars. Hope you stick around, new guy.
