Installing Fog Light Bulb Troubleshooting

[FabolingLS8]

I finally got the Hoen's but came across a little problem that i need some help with. For all of you who have replaced these fog light bulbs in the 03+ LS, How did you disconnect the electrical connector to the fog light bulb as described in the manual? Everytime i tried pulling it apart it wouldn't budge. Should i pull harder, or is there a button that releases a lock on the connector that i'm not aware of? I'll try again in the morning with whatever advice i get. If it ends up i just need to pull harder or pull in another direction, i'd like to go ahead and say sorry for the pointless thread. but either way, Thanks in advance! As soon as i get the new pair of bulbs in, i'll show you the new look!

Push tab/button thing and pull hard.

There is a push lock on it, just like on the headlight's bulb's connectors. Push down hard on it and pull. Also just a heads up. When I installed the nokya bulbs, the rubber sealer around the bulb, usually orange, was a little bigger than stock. The nokya bulb did not want to go in there as much as i pushed so I just switched out the rubber piece with the OEM one. Just in case these are the same so you dont think there is something wrong with the bulb.

every harness in every car ever built(at least in the past two decades) have release buttons that need to be pressed BEFORE pulling.


you could also twist the bulb out of the socket and then look at the harness as you disconnect it.

haha alright guys, so i guess there is a push lock. you'd think they'd put that in the owners manual!

FYI The Hoen's are looking pretty darn sweet. It's definitely a great way to start off the new year. Pictures up later tonight if anyone is interested. Sorrry but i didnt get to take a before picture. it was a b!tch getting everything together and making it look right. LOL and i am not about to do that all over again to show a before and after. But yeah it's definitely the stock white color i was going for, i definitely recommend Hoen's to everyone.
