PIAA 520 SMR bulb replacement

[statman24]

OK... feel a bit dumb... but I've tried everything.

My 4runner came with a pair of PIAA 520 SMR lights (Chrome). One of the bulbs is burnt out.

What is the correct way to get the cover off so that I can get to the bulb?

Thanks in advance!!

Dont mean high jack your thread but I am thinking about buying the 520's. either the SMR or teh Ion Crystal. How do they perform? Would you buy them again or something cheaper?

Well I have chrome PIAA Plasma ION yellow 520i fogs. Just pull off the grill(which I do when I park somewhere dangerous), so you won't scratch them. I noticed some screws on the back side, unscrew them and remove the cover. Go about changing the bulb as you would do any other remembering not to actually touch the glass. It's an H3 bulb. Here, see if this link works... http://www.piaa.com/Lamps/Lamp-pages/520.html

I know you said 520 SMR, but it's almost the same as the 520i
