Well, a foglight (bulb) has burned out and I just want to remove the old one and put in a new one. I've pulled, twisted, pulled and twisted, pushed and twisted, pushed twisted and pulled... and man, that thing isn't coming out.

Okay, what's the secret -- which I'm sure isn't really a secret. I've never had a problem changing similar bulbs in other cars. I'm trying not to force things, so I don't break them, but this is just a tad frustrating.

Any help?

there is a little tab ya have to press and then twist the connector (to the left IIRC) and pull it out. once the bulb is out of the housing, there is yet another lock tab ya lift up and the bulb out of the socket.

similar to a Dakota.

dont touch the new bulb(glass part) with your fingers, the oil from your skin can cause the bulb to burn out prematurely. if you already have touched it, clean it with an alcohol wipe and then install it. at about $10 a bulb, you dont wanna have to buy to many of them
