  • Replacing the headlights and fog lights were a nice upgrade for our 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
    In this video, I show how to
    1. Remove Grill
    2. Remove Bumper
    3. Remove Headlight Assembly
    4. Remove Fog Lights
    5. Put it all back together
    Amazon links to parts shown in this video:

    Fog Lights: amzn.to/3d0qQlI
    New Bumper Clips: amzn.to/2SzlDsG

    These instructions should be pretty much the same for all the Jeep WK models from 2005 - 2010.

      Not to change the bulbs. If you want to replace the fog light assembly, you might be able to do it by splitting off the section of bumper with it still on the Jeep.
