replacing clearance light bulb on 02

for the look of it seems that i need to remove the whole headlight assembly inorder to replace the clearance light bulb. Is this true or there is other ways of doing it? thx.

Um not sure what you are talking about but maybe I think you are talking about the small 194 bulb which most people call either the parking lights or the running lights. That bulb can be done without taking the headlight assembly off, I tried once, got it in there, took me 10mins since my hands are too big to fit in that small of a space. The second time, I got soo freagin mad that I took off the headlight assembly to make it easier.

Now if you talking about the turnsignal bulbs, no you dont need to remove the assembly, it is a clear access to remove/reinstall them

I used needle nose pliers to take them off and then I managed to get them back on with 2 fingers. Swist and pull.
