Fog Light Bulb Replacement

I bought some Nokya 2500K yellow bulbs for my 07 Matrix XR & 09 Corolla S. The Corolla was easy & it even said how to get to them in the manual. In the Matrix manual it said not to do it yourself & go to the dealer. I didn't get a chance to look at the car as my wife needed the car, but are there any tricks to replacing the bulbs? Thanks in advance.

For the 03-04 models with foglights - you just have to crawl underneath, twist out the bulb and replace.

I guess the 05-08s have a plastic cover?

Not hard to do @ all, why not upgrade to HIDs?
