Hard to replace factory fog lamps (bulbs)?

I recently had a fog light blow, and was wondering how difficult is it to replace. It is on a '91 TA. I know this should be extremely routine but I didnt want to get in over my head with this because I wasnt sure if I should try to replace it from the front by taking off the lens or trying from underneath the car from behind the lights. Anyone who has done this before, tips would be extremely helpful, thanx in advance guys.

------------------
'91 TA, 305TPI, mild cam, stock heads ported and polished, ported plenum, SLP siamesed runners, edelbrock TES headers, flowmaster 3" cat-back, 3.73 posi, K&N, custom CAI, hypertech stage II chip, march underdrive pulleys,
"305 my A**" -countless mustang owners, after a good spanking.

Don't know what kind of access your car has (I have a '91 Z), but they just "twist-n-lock" (pull out) from the back of the light. Piece of cake.

on my trans am there are two screws to remove from the front, push the light in a little, then rotate it a little and pull it out. when replacing the bulb, touch it as little as possible cause the oils from ur fingers can cause it to blow as soon as you put it back in......learned that the hard way
