Side marker replacement
 
How does one replace the bulb in a side marker on a 2006?:confused:

For the front, you have to open up the wheel well to get access to it. It's the same for the front signals and headlights..

For the rear, you need a phillips screwdriver.

If you have access to new "christmas tree" clips, it makes life much easier. That way you don't have to worry about damaging the old ones.

i recommend a $7 plug puller tool to get that wheel well liner out/ When i was tinting my fronts, i tried and fought with a screwdriver, but with the right tool it rook 30 seconds. it looks like this >------[||||]

You used a screwdriver? I use a pair of needle nose pliers. They pull right out.

Ditto on the pliers

i was trying to keep them in tact, and the little slotted pry tool does just that.

With the pliers you guys just grabbing from the side and pulling straight out or rocking it or what?
