cuz they know the majority of camry owners are older people who will not get on their backs to change out the fog lights but to just bring it to the dealer and be charged an hr's worth of labor for a 10 min job lol..

all u gotta do is take down 2-3 bolts/screws from each corner underneath the car that hold up the splash guard. once u take those off, pull out the splash guard from the lip of the bumper and then you will be able to access the fog light bulb.. it is removed the same way your headlight bulbs are removed.. very simple job.. after the second time, you can do it in 10 mins beginning to end

just like to add that it'll be a lot easier and more comfortable to jack up the front end of the car to change the fog light bulbs.

this is true, but then taking out the jack or driving it up ramps takes up time too lol.. i just got my nokya's and put them in in 7 mins flat, along with changing my low beams to HIR 9011's... but yes, getting the front end up higher makes things much easier on the knees and back lol

Your Owners manual doesn't tell you a lot of things.

That's why they have Service manuals..............
