fog lights h3 bulbs - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #92477 7 posts Started by cheela
stupid question but how do you replace the fog light bulbs?
I'm taking it apart and can get the bulb out but I can't for the life of me get that little tail that's connected to it out. Do I just yank it out? or is there a release mechanism?

No release mechanism, it's just a simple spade connector smile.gif. It pulls straight out, but you may have to wiggle it around a bit, as it's in there pretty snug.

Ok. That's what I thought but I didn't wanna pull it and break something but damn mine must be in There pretty tight. I'll give it another go.

i think it looks better with the fog lamp covers on instead. there seems to be so many lights on the front of our 6gc's lol but yeah post a pic once its done. urs is the first green celica iv actually seen before

"whoever said progress was a slow process... was probably talking about me"
yeah thats how i felt too. I wasnt ever planning on them but got them cheap enough and everything is plug n play for me so i'll try it for a bit. need some time off to take apart my front end and put them in. I'll post pics smile.gif
