Default how to install new fog bulbs

I've used the search function and I found a few threads and a few pictures trying to explain how to get to the fog lights on a SC. The problem is I removed all the screws mentioned but nothing happens. I can't move anything off or peel anything back. I really don't want to have to remove the bumper. Is there any other way to get to the housing? I've had these bulbs forever and I really want to just install them. Thank you for any tips or pictures.

You would have to jack your car up and remove the underbody black plastic pieces on your left and right hand side..Note, you will have to jack up your car far or high enough so you can actually see what your doing! Once your inside, you will see exposed screws for the foglight assembly..Continue to take off exposed screws then you would have to take the whole fog light out on each side...Once you take the foglight out from your front bumper, you will have access to your H3 light bulbs..

In addition, there are exactly 2 screws that keep the foglight intact...If your not familiar with using automotive tools or actually have obtained the correct tools to do this, then I suggest you leave it up to a professional..

Also note, if you choose to NOT take out the WHOLE foglight assembly, you will have a lot of trouble putting the bulbs back into the housing..
