Corner Light Assembly

Hello Everyone,

This is my first post to the forum. Basically all I want to do is replace the OEM corner light assembly on my 89 Maxima SE, with a clear corner light assembly. The problem is I can't figure out how to remove it from the housing. I found a screw on the top that holds the top part of the corner light assembly on, but there is another screw or something, that is keeping me from removing the entire assembly. It may not be a screw, but something is holding it on. I didn't want to crack the light, so I didn't try too hard to remove it. Can anyone give me instructions on how to remove the assembly?

Thanks in advance,

here ya go

Remove the screw and gently pry the front of the assembly away from the fender using a flat head screwdriver wrapped in cloth being careful not to chip or break the light lens.

there's only that one screw. then do what dnas said, it's simple, i didn't want to try hard when i did it either, but you have to...also, it tells you how in your manual if you have one. people never seem to wanna go there...

It's an 11 year old car with previous owners. hmmmmm....maybe it didn't come with a owner's manual. Thanks for the advice but I obviously didn't have a manual or I wouldn't have bothered posting the question.

i did put if you have one...i figured that it was a possibility you didn't since like you said, it's old, but i figured just in case you did have it.

Try to get your hands on a manual for your car - it's got lots of useful information about specs and parts and operation of the car (like the alarm). Makes for some interestng reading too.

BTW, the tire pressures are located inside the lid of the center console.... Not that you asked about it, but I looked everywhere before I found it!
