It's very difficult to change the bulb and replace the retaining clip in place because you'll be working in the blind. It will save you a lot of swearing if you simply remove the entire light unit and replace the bulb outside. Luckily, this is pretty easy, but you will need a short handled Phillips screwdriver because there's almost no clearance.
First remove at least two of the fasteners on the plastic cowling below. This is done by threading out the center piece by hand and then pulling. With two out, you can pull back the cowling enough to expose the light assembly. Remove the electrical connection by squeezing the clip on the top. The light unit is held by two Phillips screws, one on either side. In order to remove it, you will also have to remove the grey adjuster knob, which is another two Phillips screws. Once all the screws are out, the unit slides easily out the front.
Once the unit is out, remove the water seal cover by turning it counter-clockwise. Undo the clip, remove the lamp, and disconnect the spade clip (the wire is attached to the lamp). When you see how the lamp is clipped in, you'll be very glad you did not try to do this in place. It's even a little tricky to get it right on the bench.

You will have to access the fog light bulb from below the vehicle. Remove the plastic clips from the wheel well cover extension that is below the fog light. Once the clips are out and the plastic cover is pull down, you should be able to see the back of the fog light.
