Angry Lighting Question

On my 99 both my right and left outer most from marker lights have burned out. The trouble is....and please dont laugh........I can not get the orange plastic out so that I can replace the bulbs. I see the screws that I take out and have removed them and all it seems to do is make it a little loose....no way to get it out. I am stumped...and embarrassed. Thoughts or input is welcome. THANKS!!

Once you get the screws out, it's just those plastic pushpins holding it in there. They can be quite frustrating, but more (gently) pressure is all that's required.

Just the two little screws on the bottom side of the marker assembly, then pull straight out.

you have to gently work the parking light asembly back and forth to break it loose, first, then pull the inside edge (closest to the grille ) out to allow the taller portion of the light to clear the headlight and that will help you get the last alignment pin to release. remember...be gentle !! hope that helps.

On the subject of lighting, does anyone know where I can get a new set of Fog lights of rmy 02 PSD. Both of mine are shot, and the stealership is wanting something outrageous. Thanks

Try Interstate Battery. They have an accessory dept. I bought my lights from them. If they don't sell retail, then just about any auto parts outlet has them.
