top corner light assembly?
top corner light assembly?
yo whats up, I ordered some bulbs from custommaxima to change the ones shown here, http://www.custommaxima.com/images/P...ication4th.jpg
(the arrow with M14)
I cant seem to loosen the piece, I unscrewed the top screw that holds it in (you know the one you see immediately after popping hood), I tried loosening it but it seems theres something below holding it in but I cant find the screw to loosen it. for those of you who changed the bulbs, did you guys remove the whole corner piece or were you able to change it without removing it? it seems the righ side has enough room to change the bulb without removal, but the left side is very tight.
any comments or info would be appreciated
thanks

There is a piece that snaps in down there. The first time you take it off it is a ***** to get out. Take a flash light and look down there. Put a flat screwdriver where the snap goes it and twist. It should come right out.

also, soak where the two pieces meet with WD-40, and let sit for ten minutes. then wedge the screwdriver in there and twist. the WD40 will clean out all the gunk that gets wedged in the crack.

Once you get it out, put some synthetic grease in the hole and you'll never have that problem again.

also, if u can't pop it out... u can try to sneak under the bottom of the corner light, where u can twist the base of the bulb and take it out... tat's wat i did for one of them, cuz i didn't wanna pull it too hard and break it (not worth it.)
