Hyundai Repair: Fog lights, santa fe gls, fog lamps


Question
I have a 2007 santa fe GLS (base model) I would like to install my own fog lights. My question is, how do you remove the factory inserts in the front bumper?

Answer
I haven't had occasion to look at the fog lamps on a 2007 Santa Fe yet, and my trip to the service manual was uninspired to say the least.

The parts catalog makes it appear as though the lamp or blanking panel attaches from behind the bumper.  Often this is accessible by lowering the front portion of the fender liner, so I'd recommend trying that first.  The parts catalog showed no screws, so it may take some inspection from behind on your part to determine whether the cover snaps into place.
