    So a friend just brought it to my attention the other day that one of my fogs is out. The light isn't cracked or anything, so I guess the bulb just went out. Is it hard to change these? I haven't even really looked at it yet, just wondering. Also, and kind of bulbs that you would reccomend. I'm thinking about going yellow, but I'm not sure if that's a bulb or just the film you can put over it. I'm just curious what kind of bulbs you guys would reccomend for either white or yellow.

    its very easy to replace the bulbs. its like 3 phillips screws around the light on th efront side. as far as the yellow most of the yellow fogs on here are yellow cause of the rockblocker film. i dont know the size or model of the bulb.

    Yeah, it is really easy to change the bulbs out. There are 4 screws around the foglight housing, but one is used only for aiming the beam. Take out the other 3 and it comes right out, and changing the bulbs is simple then.

    Also, the best way to get yellow fogs is to get the rockblocker, which I have and love. Then again, if you dont want your fogs to be yellow all the time you might not want this.

    I think the bulb is an H3 but you can pull yours and it will be stamped with the type.

    yeah I found it no problem. I almost went for the a new set of silverstar H3 bulbs (to match the headlights). But I didn't have the heart to fork out 40 dollars for two silverstar bulbs when I could one regular sylvania bulb for 7 dollars. Maybe next time...

    Yeah I didn't find colored ones. They might make them in the sylvania "Cool Blue" but I didn't see any. I'm relly not a huge fan of the yellow when you don't have the lights on, or else I'd go for the rockblocker. Someone on here has blue rockblocker on there fogs and it looks pretty good though.
