I am having trouble getting the old bulb out. do you pull on it or do you turn it or what. I tried both but didnt want to break it off in there so any help will be appreciated.

The parking and blinker both turn and then pull out. The headlight bulb, you have to remove the big rubber piece surrounding it first. I can't remember the rest...

Look in your Owner's MANUAL and ye shall find the light...P. 248 - explains the process w/pictures. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

once you remove the black rubber seal, there is a thin metal wire clamp holding the bulb in. you sinply press in the top of the clamp, slide it to your left, and pull it back. and you pull out the bulb.

thanks guys i got it. also for the clearing the headlights in the DIY section. do you need a clear piece to fit where the orange was or do you just take out the orange and put it back together? thanks again.

you don't need a clear plastic piece to replace the amber piece just seal it back together.
