To replace the fog light on a BMW 5 Series, disconnect the clips securing the plastic grille next to the corresponding fog light. Once these clips are removed, you can detach the grille and locate the screws securing the light on the side.

After loosening these screws, you can pull the light out from its housing, disconnecting the connector at the back. At this point, connect the new replacement part, securing it with the appropriate screws and reinstalling the grille.
