I think you just pull off the plastic surround and then get to it from there. It comes off quite easily. |

There are plastic tabs that come from the bumper, these feed through slots in the fog lamp assembly, and are then melted to form a crown that will not pull back through. I just melted the tabs and joined them with the plastic that is part of the lamp - effectively plastic welding.
