Replace DRL and parking lights
Hey guys,
I just replace DRL and parking light on the driver side, it wasn't too hard but I do have few questions
1) is it fine if i leave the headlight's back plastic cover out ?
2) what is the easiest way to get to that screw (see pic) when doing the passenger side to take out the plastic cover?
Half way....almost there!
3) Any tips on quick access to the fog lights ?
Thanks!

I've had trouble considering how to replace my DRL so I can't advise on the screws you're after.
But for the fogs, turn you front wheels to the side, and then pop out a few grommets to open up the front wheel well lining. It's super easy and will allow access to the fogs. I had to replace a full fog light housing and it was all done in no time at all. Just go through the wheel well lining.

Absolutely do not leave that cover off! If you do, you will cause condensation. To get it off, you just need to pull/push (can't remember) bar. There is no need to remove the screws.

^^ Really? I go back and visit all the time, b/c of family. We'll meet up the next time I go back.
As for the DRL, can't help you anyfurther b/c my experience is with the headlights removed. This is when I swapped them out for the 2012 LEDs.
