Replacing bulbs in foglights

I found out the bulbs in our foglights are h11 bulbs and I got a pair. The passenger side is easy to pull out. However the driver side has the oil cooler in the way. If anyone can help me or has changed the driverside foglight bulb. PLEASE HELP

According to the owner's manual, the foglight bulbs are only to be changed by a dealer. Yeah, right!

Might have to unbolt the foglight assembly and get it out of there to access the back.

yea, we've been discussing this at length, the fog lights are very tightly speezed inside the opening and the oil cooler blocks them from the back...otherwise they are very securely fastened...i've tried looking for a bolt to unscrew everywhere but it's really stuck in a hard place...maybe the manual was right?
