Side Mirror Lamp Replacement

Can someone tell me how to remove the amber lense to replace the lamps on the side mirrors? Don't want to break something.

between the glass and the frame about 2 inches up from the bottom of the mirror is a clip that holds the amber lense into the mirror housing. use a small screwdriver to unhook the clip.. then the lense slides out toward the front of the vehicle.

tilting the mirror IN all the way makes more room for releasing the clip.

check that the bulbs are seated. I smacked a concrete wall with the mirror at the tollbooth, and the lights didn't work. when I pulled the lense, both bulbs were sitting in the bottom..

both worked ok after putting them back in the sockets.
