in one of those picts the guy talks about that black plate he pulled out and cant see anything from the below (looking up into the rear bumper) pict.

looking at the service manual it appears to be forward of the fog lamp housing.
i'll know sooner or later.

and the taillamp housing pulls out towards the back of the car, not forward as mentioned in the DIY.

Just did the install this morning, it is pretty straight forward to just take the black panel out and pop in the rear fog light. If you are doing the wiring it will take longer, but I will be doing that at a later date.

I can't get the stock dummy fog off. I spun the nut VERYslowly but the post spins with it. Too much locktite on mine.

Any suggestion how to hold the post? Im probably going to drill through the dummy and hold the post with my pliers...
