00 2.0 Changing Front Foglight bulbs - cipollina

I have a W reg (2000) 306 HDI Estate, which was originally an import. The front fogs are circular and seated in a circular moulding within the black plastic grill beneath the bumper. Both bulbs have gone and I could do with the extra illumination at this time of year, I have had a look, but can't see an obvious way to change the bulbs without some serious disassembly - could someone point me in the right direction please?

Pig of a job from what I understand from a work colleague. Not sure exactly, but he ended up getting a Pug dealer to change one of his bulbs.

Hopefully only when visibility is less than 100 metres? The clue is in the name. For use when it's foggy ;o)

".....or visibility is reduced due to falling rain" apparently, from a traffic cop friend of mine.

There are far too many pink fluffy dice driving around with headlights and auxilliary lights on as well.

Access to the bulbs is from behind the lamps.You will need to raise the front of the car to release the the front part of the plastic engine cover/undertray at each corner.This will allow you to reach the lamps and bulbholders.Bit of a struggle ,but not as difiicult as it seems.hth
