Side Marker Lights...

Does anyone know how to take out the amber side marker lights?

Do you need to take of the bumber? I didn't have the heart to try a firm pull, but they seem pretty determined to stay in there!

Anyone?

Welcome to the forum!

Please do a search.... clear corners, smoked corners, etc.....

Search is your friend.....

basically turn the wheel right if your doing the left marker.
remove the three push pins in the wheel liner.
move liner out of the way being carefull of the paint.
now you should be able to see the marker from behind.
remove bulb by turning 90 degrees
remove torx screw (i think its #20)
push down on the upper plastic clip to release the top
rotate out and up....

This is from memory

Hey welcome to MBWorld its pretty simple to remove
here's the link
clear side markers

its a bit of a trick to get them back in though trying to get the bottom hook in place.
