changing fog lamp bulb in 01 NB Sport...

sledmeister · #1 (**permalink**) 03-13-2006, 03:08 AM

Ok, HOW do you get to the passenger side fog lamp bulb on the 2001.5 NB 1.8T??? Do I need to take the front grill out or is there some sort of easy way to take the bulb out I don't know about? The turbo intake is in the way of getting my hand in there to remove or get anywhere close to that d&*n bulb

. Any advice, pointers, etc would be greatly appreciated. Also, is there any place cheaper to buy the bulb then the dealer? They want 7 bucks for the thing.

thanks,

The bulb is a standard 55w H1 bulb. It can be picked up anywhere for a few bucks.
To get to the bulb, you will need to pry the grill off a little, it's only held in with snaps, be gentle prying it off and puttiing it back on. There are clips along the bottom that need to be removed to help with taking the grill off.

Hope i helped out.
