How do you change the fog light bulb on an Audi A3 8V? It is much simpler than it seems: to remove the plastic cover over the light, there are no screws to take out. Just use a plastic spatula to pry off the clips, which are also plastic, that hold the component to the bodywork.

Once this cover is removed, you will need a Philips screwdriver to take out the two screws that secure the light to the bodywork.

Pull it out of its housing and disconnect the electrical connector. Turn the back of the bulb counterclockwise and remove it from the light to replace it.
