Question Help with fog lights?

One of my fog lights has been out since I bought it. I already went out and bought a new bulb, but when I get under there and twisted the back of it off to change the bulb, I couldn't figure it out...anyone have any advice or ideas?

Dude -

What model car you got? If a GS, then remove the fog light first by removing 2 screws....then pop the unit out. The 9006 socket and bulb should be visible. This makes it easier to work with. Anyways....it might be "frozen" since this is your first time changing the bulb. Like a medicine bottle, push down a bit and twist (1/4 turn).

Oh sorry, I have a 96 ES300. After I popped the back off, I put my fingers in the back of the fog light and I can't feel the bulb.

Thanks a lot guys! I figured out I had to disassemble them to change it, but I finally swapped bulbs and man they're bright.
