If you're trying to replace the lamps this site has directions, make sure you don't replace it with a higher wattage bulb you'll fry your wiring. If you're trying to replace the whole fixture good luck.

The higher wattage bulbs doesn't fry anything. I've been running 100 watt bulbs in mine for six months. It's still 12 volts. I haven't read the tech article, but it's pretty easy to get off. The part of the lower grill that surrounds the fog lamp snaps off and then the whole fixture comes right out. On a 2000 with the conventional halogen fixtures, the lamps they take are the same as the head lamp and hight beam, H7's. HTH.

Yoon, they should both come off without too much trouble. The grills are both snap in. Do you have a bulb out or something? I'll tell you, with those 100 watt bulbe in there I light up the entire road, that's for sure. They are still focused beams but I don't out drive the low beams anymore.
