Air Intake Removal

I wanna see if I can reach the fog lights to swap in new bulbs (just got the PIAA Plasma Ion 2500k ). Can someone post up a DIY for removing the stock air intake... pretty please??

if you really want more room just take the tire out and you will have enough room for whole head light

Can I actually reach the fog lights without removing the front wheels? Otherwise that seems more PITA to jack up my car and remove my front wheels TWICE...

when i first changed the fogs/city lights i took off the intake. when i got new hids i went through the tire well. it was much easier to change the fogs that way but i couldnt get to the city lights like that.

^ so your saying.. doing under the engine bay was harder or tire well was harder for city light? wasnt clear with your last quote. "it was much easier to change the fogs that way but i couldnt get to the city lights like that."

i couldnt get to the city lights by going through the wheel well. it wasnt that easy by taking off the intakes either though. maybe other people have different experiences... did all of you guys change the city lights by going through the wheel well or by taking out the intakes.
