Has anyone here changed the fog light globes in the CU2 luxury (Not HID conversion).

How hard is it?

Do you have to remove the front bumper to do it?

I just want a closer match to the stock HID's but not the rice look.

Well on the cl9 u can pull back the wheel arch plastic cover and access the fog light from there. Its in the car manual too, so im guessing there should be some instructions in the cu2 manual also.

I have changed them and it is a pain, but you do not have to remove the bumper... But you will need to steer the wheel to either side to allow room to remove the inner arch and just below the bumper.

yeah agree. turn wheel to left to do right side and right to do left side. remove the clips and pull the plastic back. its not easy and not that hard. just annoying on ur legs unless u got a creeper.

How long does the process take?

What are the chances of breaking something :L

well unless ur superman u wont really break the plastic apart :). Clips can be a big picky, imo best to use two flat heads on opposite sides to take out. You can always remove the wheel and lift it up a bit for easier access.
