How the hell did you do fog lights without removing the bumper cover?

That would seem impossible. Did you remove the plastic shields from under the engine? If you did, you were about 30% done removing the bumper. I think it's so easy, why not. My big hands do not fit well into that tiny little space. Besides, Toyota reccomends taking the bumper off to replace the bulbs for hatchbacks.

go from the under the weather shield and reach?

yeah small girly hands ftw :D

*edit oh and some of the shield pulls away when you remove a few screws from the bumper... I'll try to get pictures tomorrow of what I did since mine need to be replaced anyway

I'm glad I found this place. I tried replacing my bulbs with some brighter ones and i couldn't figure out how to do it. Now that I have some knowledge, i might attempt it again. those rubber seals are a pain in the neck!

I replaced mine with Silverstar Ultras by removing the bumper for access. I posted some pictures of the process in this thread:
