I'm ashamed but still need help
I know this is kind of a newbie question but how do you replace ur turn signal or parking light?
I know it tells u in the drivers manual but very vaguely. The big problem is removing my fender wall to get access to the lights. They say remove the 'holding clip' with a screwdriver and just pri open the fender wall, (this is where the snag comes) how do you take out the holding clip.
I tried with a screwdriver and the head of the holding clip broke off[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG] And the body of the clip is still in place.
Is it still possible to replace the bulbs or am i screwed? And how can i remove the holding clips without breakin them?
I need help, i really know how stupid this sounds and all but i really dont know what to do, and i really dont want to go to a shop and ask them to instll my bulbs, thats even more whack.
Any help would be great, thanks

It's hard to explain, I can definitely show you how to do it...let me try..
The middle circle gets pryed out and it pops up, once that pops up, then the whole thing including the outside circle of the clip comes right off...

thanks for the advice. i know its suppose to be easy, but like supYO i broke one of them off, i fear that if i keep on tryin there all gonna be cap less.
SupYO, how and where did you get replacement holding clips for the fenders? They better not be like $5 a piece at the dealers. lol. but seriously where do i get them.
I guess i should stop being itchy and wait for the whether to wram up before I tear a hole in my car.
Thanks again, if you have any other advice, feel free thanks
