#93633, "Cannot take out fog lights!!"


          

So i read the car's manual and it saids to change the bulbs I have to unscrew a bolt holding the light to the body and disconnect the light then take the fog lights out.

the freaking problem is: I cannot take out the first bolt, I tried putting some WD-40 on it and it didnt work.. anyone have any ideas? i really dont want to jack up my car and go under it to change my bulbs

Get PB Blaster, spray it down, wait a few minutes try again.

Alternate route, get a large breaker bar and go at it. Best option is a combo of those two.

If you have a 2GB, there is a pivot bolt and there are two others behind it.

If you're not lowered it should be cake getting under the car to look. Just take your time and feel around for them.

pb blaster is nice, it might work. if the bolt is stuck for eternity you can drill that out and get one that matches and is stainless to replace it

I just wish my car was as fast as it was loud. people tell me i should use my sub to push it, it might go faster.
