Here is what you'll need:

H7 - regular headlight
H7 - hi-beam headlight
H1 - fog light
1156 - turn signals
H6W - parking lights

Good luck

Underneath the bumber area just behind each lamp is an access panel. I Found a cover for one of mine but my arms weren't long enough to reach it from above. A friend of mine found the little door under there.

Use a coin or large screwdriver to open access port under the bumber. If you have small hands you can remove the bulb (H1) without removing the entire assembly - otherwise its 2 screws to remove the fog light.

In some cases, like mine, the job is not as simple as it would seem since the harness has been know to melt at attach itself to the existing bulb. See thread at http://www.mbnz.org/forums/forums/th...42&posts=3&hl= for additional info on replacement harness if this is a problem for you.
