Looking for some play by play on the replacement of Rear Fog Lamp bulbs...
Thought I had read somewheres that removal of the rear bumper was inevitable.
Also, will replace the rear side marker bulbs.
Can someone guide me to the correct sticky on this?
Thank you...

The side markers are just reflectors. It's not necessary to remove the bumper cover, but it IS necessary to get the vehicle up on ramps or jack stands. The clips on the side markers are extremely fragile, and to just reach under and pull will result in breakage, of both your heart and the reflector. Necessary to see what you're doing and use a screwdriver.

At this point I guess my main concern would then be directed to the Rear Fogs.  Just hoping I can get to them while up on the ramps. |

The GM Parts Direct site shows that the Rear Fog bulbs are a 22692679. I think that they are a 921 style.
This other site (http://www.modifiedlife.com/) had a list of all bulbs for the 2nd Generation and They listed a rear side marker....

This other site (http://www.modifiedlife.com/) had a list of all bulbs for the 2nd Generation and They listed a rear side marker.... 22692679 is the GM part number, it's a 921. 1/4 turn counter-clockwise to remove the socket from the housing, replace bulb, 1/4 turn clockwise to secure... The other site lists the 3057 as the rear side marker because it "technically" is. It's the tail light, visible from the side. Someone here has fitted the side reflectors with lights though, maybe awehlage? |

Just wanted to throw this out there. Every once in awhile I am behind a 2G that has their rear fogs on. The 921 bulb is too bright for my liking and looks like the rear fogs are much brighter than tail lights when not braking.
So I replaced the 921 (higher lumen) with 194 bulbs (lower lumen). I like the look much better but to each their own.
