OK, I can't find them now, but I replaced mine myself too, so here are some basic instructions. You DON'T have to take off the whole bumper.

First, you will have to pull out the long piece of the grill trim - just squeeze it from up and down and pull towards you hard. It will come out eventually - just pull hard.

Then take off the other pieces of the trim(the are a lot easier). Once that is done, you'll see the screw that holds the fog light in place. Take it off and pull the assembly out a bit. Disconnect the wire and replace the bulb. Test and put everything back. :)

Now I did this about 4 months ago so I might have missed smth, but the trick was the middle piece of the grill trim.

I need some information on how to replace the fog light. The lower spoiler does not seem to have any screws where I can get at the lights, do I have to unscrew the whole bottom of the car to get at the lights?
