i have a 2004 rx-8 and i wanted to changed the fog light bulb to a LED bulb
but some how it won't come out i was wondering if i was doing it wrong?

Lubricant is usually used to get things IN, not OUT. YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!

On a serious note:
Check the D.I.Y. subforum, there's a thread on exactly how to change them out.

Dam I think I need to do that. I never turn them on because they're yellow instead of blue..

Try disconnecting the wire connector from the bulb then try to ramove the bulb. I was having trouble getting mine out and decided to try that and then the bulb came out no problem
