Electrical how do you remove the 5w parking light
Front Parking light?
Are you referring to the front parking lights, next to the turn signals in the bumper? If so, I would like to know as well! I know you can access from under the bonnet, but I cannot for the life of me, get the bulb romved from the housing it is in.
Thanks!
Thanks!
I've removed mine, and it was pretty easy.
Just open the bonnet, and you'll see an opening in the front bumper to remove the assembly. Twist the whole thing to remove it and pull the bulb from it.
I also removed my side fenders lights. This was a bit more involving.
PM me if you need any more help!

Changing the bulb is a little tricky with large hands. Here are some tips...
1. Remove the turn signal light first to geve yourself more room.
2. Unplug the wire from the "city light" to give yourself a better grip on the bulb housing. Just press the release and pull straight off.
3. Turn the bulb housing about 1/8 turn to the left and then it'll pull straight out. If you can't get it to turn, you can reach in with a pair of pliers and help it along. Just use caution if you resort to the pliers.
