I hate the idea of going to the dealer to replace bulbs.  I have very
limited maintenance experience.

Can anyone give me a basic step by step, dumbed-down explanation of how
to replace the Fog Lamp bulbs?  I have a 96 Ford Explorer Sport.

find the wire loom that goes to the back of the fog light follow it up to
the light then just turn the round plastic ring and pull it out once out
lift the tab that holds the bulbin place and pull the bulb out and replace

Thank you very much.  I was easily able to pull the plastic ring out,
but could not see anything that looked like a tab.  In fact everything
seemed to be one solid piece.

This is a picture I took of the assembly...You can see the bulb is
broken.

thing took less than five minutes!
