How to replace rear sidelight bulb?
How to replace rear sidelight bulb?
How do you get access to the rear side marker bulbs? My Haynes manual tells how to replace every other bulb, but I didnt see this one.
I saw and removed a phillips screw inside the rear wheelwell thinking that it might hold the light assembly in place, but the assembly doesnt seem to want to come out. I also tried prying on the lens cover from the outside, but I didnt want to mark up the plastic trim.
Thanks.

Never mind...
I found a DIY on the web for replacing the front marker light - it's similar. All you have to do is remove the phillips screw holding the inner wheelwell on (I jacked up the rear wheel for better access) and then bend the plastic wheelwell out of the way. Then I could get to the back of the marker light.
My car was rear-ended earlier this year and it turns out that the body shop had not plugged the bulb back intot he marker light housing!
