Seems that my passenger side fog light has decided to fall into my front bumper.

As it stands, I have no idea what the problem is... a completely broken part, a detached clip... etc... My skinny wristed girlfriend was able to to reach-in, and seat it back "ONTO" the housing.. everything fits, it just doesn't stay in (as much as a breeze will push it back in)

Part # 63 17 6 910 792, I believe

If there's a super quick DIY, I'd like to know, otherwise, it's time to ring up the S.A. again (still on warranty)

Thanks guys.

If I recall correctly, the fog light slides into two slots on one side and is then attached on the other side with one screw. You might want to bring it in unless you want to take off a wheel and some splash shields to get a good look at what got loose over there in order to fasten the light properly.

They're forecasting rain soon too.. I can see that the bumper is vented/has a drain, so I'm not too worried.. Should I be?

Thanks again

I just took mine out to resurface the lens. There are two screws that hold it in place on one side and two tabs that lock it on the other side. You will have to take out 4 to 5 screws of the fender well cover to get access underneath to take it all the way out. This should be a 15 min job to do per side.
