They have been out since I purchased the vehicle back in March but am finally looking to get them working again. H1 bulbs correct? In addition to a how to, does anyone recommend a certain brand for longevity?

Yes it is an H1 bulb. We use Osram/Sylvania 64150 and have quite good life from them. To replace you will have to remove the plastic splash pans from under the front valance area, a series of 8mm headed screws. Then you will see the bottom of the fog / driving light housing. Remove the bulb cover cap and remove retainer to drop the bulb out. When installing the new bulb make very sure you DO NOT touch the glass portion of the bulb with your bare fingers. The oil from your fingers will burn into the glass and cause a hot spot that will cause premature failure of the bulb. This holds true for all Halogen bulbs no matter the application. Be careful with the bulb socket as it is aim-able and will break at its pivots if you force it into place. Hope this helps, Al.
