Access to fog lamps

One of my fog lamps has become detached within the enclosure, it still works but has dropped down within the bumper. How do I access this? Looks like maybe by taking the headlamp out and getting in through the hole?

never looked on the Freely but I would hazard a guess there is a little access panel in the wheel arch behind the bumper where you can get to it... I'd be supprised if there aint! Freelander 2 TD4 Auto, SE, Narvik Black, Alpaca full leather, Rear Headrest Entertainment System, 6 CD, 18 HSE Wheels, Privicy tints

You need to lever out the Fog Lamp Surround by placing a flat blade screwdriver at the top of the light and the surround, the fog lamp is retained then by four screws. Thumbs Up

It is in the book if you have one Thumbs Up

Jl4 - Welcome, just noticed it's your first post. As with most forums, there's a bit of humour on here (and more importantly there's a lot of very good info too), it's not meant to be offensive - just give back more than you receive Thumbs Up

use a over due credit card to pry open the cover from the side, then undo the retaining screws of the fog lamp.
