Default Fog Light Bulb Replacement (Sonata)

I just purchased a used 2008 Sonata GLS. The second day the front right fog light bulb went out. I have searched through the owner's manual and it suggests that I take it to the dealer to have the bulb replaced. Is this something I can do myself?

I have purchased the correct bulb. Can anyone walk me through the process?


Thanks

Remove the front fog lamp (A) after loosening the screws and disconnecting the fog lamp connector.

Maybe the dealer would be a better option.

Yes, but you have to remove the fender liner (which has an extension secured with screws to the front bumper cover) to gain access. Your new Sonata has several warranties, including a 12 month/12,000 mile warranty that covers just about everything on the car. The dealership should replace the bulb for free.
