My Q45 front foglight is off from bumper!

[tim57]

Hi, I have Q45 1998. Its passenger side front foglight was off from bumper and its "ear" (plastic part for installation) was broken. I replugged in wires, there was no light. The wires had 12V. I unlocked the back of the foglight assembly but I could not find the way to take out the bulb out. Please help. Tim.

Welcome, Tim.

Could you elaborate more on your difficulty? Pretty straightforward to remove the bulb once the foglight is in your hands. Standard bayonet mount from what I recall.

Tanks Brian, From the back of the light assembly, there is an arrow sign and "lock" sign. I unscrew it with the opposite direction of the arrow sign. I opened the back. But what I can see is some wires and some metal staff. What is the next?

Maybe posting a picture would help... I think your bulb may be shattered, and you're seeing the filament?

ok so when you look at the metal compartment you will see a paperclip looking thing press it down and out of the way it should pop up with its hinge mechanism and than take out your bulb and replace it end of story preatty strait forward = ]
