Fog light removal: 14+ Platinum vs SR5

yes i searched lets just get that out the way.

is there a different way to remove the fog lights (trim / housing) on a 14+ platinum?

obviously i searched and found the method for sr5 but mine on the platinum do not pop out as easy, and there seems to be a blue retaining clip? Any one have any info?

TIA

 

The blue clip slides out to the side. Then there two clips to release. One on top one on bottom of the bezel.

 

If I can get that blue clip off i can slide the whole assembly out through the front? I think I'll be replacing my fog lights soon, if i have to go in from the back i will.

 

You can but I wouldn’t. You get the risk of bending the plastic trim which causes the entire assembly to shake. Do it right and learn from my mistake. It’s not that much harder to go from the rear.

 

Thank you sir. I'll go in from the rear, giggity.
I went that way when I changed my bulbs once, it wasn't so bad.

 

She’ll like it. Don’t worry.

 

I agree. Actually, it's not difficult to go through the wheel well at all. Just be careful to not break the little plastic piece that holds the front wheel well liner to the fender.
