one of the bulbs in my driving/fog lights is blown. I've done a search and came up with nothing. My question is how hard are these to change and if anyone has done so, whats the procedure? Thanks, reddog.

Pretty straightforward. Just hold the lamp assembly (it is screwed into and held in place by plastic) while you gently twist the bulb socket to the left, and pull out the old one. The bulb simply slides into a slot in the socket. You may need to remove the splash shield to get at the lamp.
When you do it, I suggest you swap out the bulb (H1) for the Silverstar H1s (about $22.00 each but much brighter).

This is good advice. I did this and they are Bright (with a capital "B"). I use mine as day-time running lamps.

Pull those silly diffusers out while you're at it.:up:

If you have a floor jack and an impact wrench it is about a 10 minute job if you remove the front tires. You can also rotate the tires while you are at it if you are so inclined, although I dont advocate rortating side to side. H1 Siverstars only way to go:up:
