I would think that you can twist the bulb holder base and pull it out. That's how they are mounted in the housing.

take out the bulb or take that whole housing out?

but all light bulbs in the car (atleast in front and rear) will involve some type of twisting.

dont feel bad I was a bit confused with the KS and getting that b!tch out, till 10 min later my brother can and looked at it for 5 sec and said, pull this metal piece up. . . . D'oh!

you have to unscrew the 1 screw on top and pop that sucker out(the whole corner lamp housing) it takes a little force but it will come out.

Yup... theres one screw on top. Then you can pop the entire lens off. It takes some muscle but its VERY straight forward.

if not successful sell the car and shred your license...

corner light is easier to take out if you get that screw out then pull on it and look in an see where it is connected still and put a flat head screw driver in there and twist, corner light will come out with ease.
