You should be able to get to the fog light by reaching up under the front valance/bumper after removing the vent pieces.

I tried with no luck. On the 35D there is no way to get access unless you pull the front bumper off, Im guessing.

I removed both air intake plastic pieces but are completely blocked. Im guessing I would have to remove the font bumper to get to the fog lights which is a pain if If the bulbs go out.

Got to do some research and figure out what vendors are out there who can provide an easy plug and play solution.

which fog light will you go ahead? I have done a bit research, but can't pick up the right one

the non diesel models are easier to replace fog bulbs with. I removed the black grill pieces and it was open behind that

I got two very big packages yesterday...the ups guy had to use a dolly to bring it in the house. It almost took his back out trying to lift it. What can it be? I was going to take a break this weekend from touching the X5 but I guess I cant. Well it depends if the other parts arrive today.

Enjoy your weekend everyone!
