How do I replace the rear left signal light bulb? Don't feel like going to the dealer.

Do you mean the one on the front bumper on the side? If so you have to take off the plastic cover on the under body and get to it from the bottom. Hope this helps...

Rear left akantail light. Looks like the unit has fixed bulbs via spotweld.

If bulb is fixed to assembly, you may have to replace the lamp carrier assembly

Yup, they're ordering a new circuit board for monday or tuesday! Retarded, that's why you pay premium $$$ for parts when warranty goes away. No big deal though covered under warranty.

I wish I could get rid of the amber bulbs. Can only do it in the front unfortunately.
