Yep it's the cheapest way but the end result is the same.

Then whem you open the top you see the yellow tube, take something to smash it with and throw out all the lose glass pieces and you have clear foglights.
Then take the bite you've cut out and weld it back in.
wouldn't it just have been cheaper to take the bulb out and smash it from the inside?

Little DIY to Clear your foglights. Total time 20min from undoing the first screw and putting them back in again. This is the cheapest way to have clear foglight.


So take out your foglights with undoing the 2 screws.
Then take them to a beanch and cut the topsite open.



Then whem you open the top you see the yellow tube, take something to smash it with and throw out all the lose glass pieces and you have clear foglights.
Then take the bite you've cut out and weld it back in.


dont do this...just put a nutdriver in there and break the capsule then remove the glass.
