My drivers side fog light is out and I was wondering if anyone knows, or has replaced one? I'm handy with tools and DIY type jobs so I figure I can tackle this one myself.

I took a quick look under the car tonight and noticed that there is a plastic panel that prevents accessing the area where the light is housed. It looks like it's fairly easy to remove and put back on, but what I'm curious about is whether there are any more hurdles or barriers preventing me from accessing the light once I remove this panel. Also, do I have to replace the entire light housing or is it just a bulb?

I'm trying to avoid taking it to Audi service as I'm sure they will charge me an arm and a leg and unfortunately this falls under wear and tear and isn't covered under warranty.

Any tips, tricks or points?... thanks in advance.

 

most likely the same as my a4
you take a screw drive to the lil plated trim around the fog lamp
and pop those out, ill get you a pic in a min

then there will be a few screws holding it in place, you can remove it and get access like that
again, let me double check that.

 

okay, IT MAY be like these pics, but dont quote me on it. youll be able to tell by looking at it if its not the same, but just for use as a guide, hope this helps...





and then...

 

Thanks zrwhat!... I think that is the same on my car. I'm going to take a closer look after work.

 

hope it helped, give me an update.
