If youre doing just a simple bulb swap it pretty simple if you have a pair of drive up ramps. You need to take off the center bottom pan underneath the engine (6 phillips screws) then the two smaller sections (1 each side) under each foglight (3 8mm screws) and you can access the fog lights easily, as they just twist right into place.

Id say you can do it in 15 minutes. There is a way you can unloosen some screws in the wheel wells and do it too, but its a pain to wiggle your arms in that space especially on the driver side where you have the window washer resivour.

Just drop the bottom plastic wind deflector pan, its really the easiest way!
