B8 S-Line Saloon Fog Lgiht Replacement

[Sheroo]

Can anyone please advise what the standard bulb for this is and how easy it is to remove the grille/housing and replace? I tried to tug it but was concerned I might snap something.

Apparantly I can give it a good yank from the grille end and it should come off, going to give it a go once to fog light arrives. Let's hope it doesn't break...

Could you perhaps put some pictures up of when you do it? Im interested to know how this is done too. If a bulb blows, I don't want to go to a dealer just to change something that should *theoretically* only take a few minutes...

Replaced it within 10 minutes, it's quite a simple job, I was worried I might snap the foglight grille, but if pulled from the side closest to the central grille, it comes off quite easily, pics attached, apologies for poor quality.

I'd heard the grille was easy to snap, so when I changed my front fogs, I undid the couple of torx screws holding that spongy liner in the wheel well and it lets you get at the fogs from behind. Oh, the bulb is a H11 fitting.
