Do It Yourself Fog Lamp (EASY)

I could not take out those two Nuts. I finally dremeled them out. It took me 30 minutes to take out those two Nutty Nuts. Thanks everyone.

I posted a very simple way to remove that dummy fog somewhere. Before you even mess with the nuts you take your dremel cutting wheel and put a small slit in the stud. Now put your ratcheting wrench on the bolt and a flathead in your slit. Hold the flat head tight and start cranking.

It is very difficult (yes, possible) to get access enough to work with a dremel to cut those slots/cut decent slots. Reality is, if you use a heat gun to gently heat those locktite secured fasteners for 15-30 seconds the nuts will come off very easily with a box wrench..
