you'll need to remove the lamp housing from the car, so check the REAR FOG LAMP INSTALL in the DIY section.

also for the amber bulbs you can spray paint them silver. they
illuminate amber but appear silver when not fired up.

Got it! Thanks for your reply.

There should have been an access from the trunk though. Ease things a little bit. Hehehe!

Picking up my Z in 3:30 hours... CAN'T WAIT!

yah, there's a grill on the trunk liner near the back of the lamp that APPEARS to be an access point but it's just there to say "sucka!"

congrats on your new car.
