Fogs are fairly easy. You just hafta unscrew the screws in the bottom black piece under the front bumper and then you have really easy access to the foglights.

No wise a$$ ( 8) ) the manual actually says not to do it yourself, if you need those bulbs changed they want you to bring it to Toyota. Believe me, i do as much homework as possible before i bring my problems/questions to this board.

Here's a dumb question: Do you need to jack the car up or can you easily access these screws with the car flat? I've wondered about the fogs myself.

Maybe you can go from behind the wheel well and feel for the bulb.

I have a 98 accord and that's how I get the turn signals bulbs for that.

I have not lookinto the solara...but it may be the same way.
