2008 9-3 Tid 150 Sportwagon front fog light bulb

[Petemate]

Can't find anything explaining how to change the bulb. I'll remove the bumper if necessary. However, got a replacement bulb from Eurocarparts and it is a basic H3 55w bulb with a short piece of wire and male lucar attached. A few illustrations I have found show a different bulb with a plastic fitting. ?
TIA
Pete

You need to remove the spoiler shield that's attached to the lower edge of the bumper lip for access.

Thanks Phoenix - I ultimately checked the owners manual and found the info I needed. Derr.

If you have the 2008 car with the round foglights, I'm pretty sure they need an H8 bulb, same as the later 9-5.

Be aware that most places say the H8 bulb "is not suitable for your car"

Fitted a pair of bulbs to an 04 Aero 2 weeks ago, replacing some LED rubbish & for the first time in 6 years the owner had fog lights
