I have a cracked fog light bulb in the my jdm front conversion and it's just dangling around in there. Anyone have any idea on how to take it out? Thanks

the yellow bulbs are oem spec bulbs

can you take the cover from behind pull the rest of the bulb from the socket, and try shaking the rest out?

Same thing wrong with mine. You might really have to put that headlight in the oven to heat up the seal and take apart.
Havent gotten around to mine as yet.

This is what I did when my bulb busted. I used a .5inch rubber hose and taped it the vacuum attachment. It worked well...
