The trims around the lights pop off and then you can pop the light unit out to get at the bulb and replace it. I think it's possible to get your hand in behind the bumper via a few places to get at the bulbs but it's just as easy to pop the lamp out.

Shine a torch in through the grill to the side and you'll see a metal plate about 1cm sqr as part of the fog light bracket.
Push this with a screwdriver and it will pop the fog light out enough to extract it.

You can shine a torch forwards too , if you want. My Xantia2 fog lights are junk compared with my old Punto- at least you could see a difference when I turned the Punto ones on.

I'm not keen on Mk2 lights at all
Both Jenny and Cassy's headlights are much better than Juliet's, and Jenny's fogs light up the road a teat
