How do I remove the headlight housing?

The dealer told me the front bumper needs to be
removed... is there another way to do this?

My foglight has burned out. I cannot reach it with my
big hands...

Thank you!

Default BUlb removal

I've replaced the foglamp bulb without removing the bumber. My hands, too are no so small. But I was able to replace them with some effort.

The one of the driver side is move difficult than the passenger side due to lack of space.

If it is the passenger side you need to unscrew one screw that holds the plastic tube for the windshield fluid.

If it is on the driver side, remove the headlight bulb first, this way you'll have a little more space.

The trick to the foglights is that you have to disconnect the connector from the bulb while the bulb is in the headlamp itself. Otherwise, you will not be able to turn the bulb with the connector.

If the vehicle is under warranty, have Lexus do the work.

Good luck.
