Re:
There is really not much room there to stick your hand to un-screw the little bolt holding the fog light in place because of the windscreen washer bottle but I found the easiest way is to get to the bolt from the top by sliding your right hand in front of the washer bottle and then reach from under the car to pray out the little plastic lip holding the fog light in place before pushing it out of the bumper. It took me close to 45 minutes trying to get the damn thing off.

Re:
You can get to that screw from the top Tom. Much easier and in this case you will also be able to use a socket to tighten it. The RHS fog light itself will still be removed from the bottom as you mentioned.
I can't believe how bright those LED foggies are. It's like having a set of HIDs in there.

Re: DRLs (Daytime Running Lights)
So we finally fitted the replacements fog lights today which I purchased through Aliexpress last year. Put it off until the latest service as it was much easier working underneath with the car on the hoist. Did however need to drop the hoist to access the screw, for the drivers side, from the top. As Jalal has said it is much easier, but it did take significantly longer than the passenger side.
I did end up going with the 'yellow' lights as the white ones can't legally be used as DRLs anyway.
Gotta to say we were surprised how bright they were when when we flicked the switch and when you consider they only cost about $35 delivered they're a super bargain!!!
