1991 Fog lamp bulbs

I need some help from the Celica forum please....I have purchased a set of OEM fog lights from a 91 Celica non turbo for a retrofit on my 95 Camry. I would like to replace the bulbs with some new ones before I do the install. Could someone please tell me the correct way to do this so I don't damage my lights. I took off the chrome ring that surrounds the lens, but the lens would not come off. I did not want to start prying on the lens/lights until I got some advice.
Thanks for the help,
W95C

The lens is attached to the housing with a silicone sealant bead, so don't pry on it or you'll have to re-seal it...there is a little metal spring clip on the back of the housing, which you have to release (it's under the black rubber cover). Then you can remove the bulb from the rear of the housing, and replace.

G'luck.

SUCCESS I feel kind like and idiot because the light came apart so easily. It was late last night when I was looking at these lights and I was afraid to do anything until I got some advise. So I pulled the whole light assembly out of the bracket and the rubber boot came right off. The new bulbs are in and it is on to the next step of the retro.
Thanks again,
W95C
