You have to take off the crossbar (two bolts and then pull to take off velcro on the ends and clip releases in center) then you can push the turn signal out from the rear. They have a tab on one side and a spring clip on the other that allow you to push one side and it will pop out.

Hey,
I just reread the post, were you talking about the side marker light or the front lamp in the grill?

I gave you instructions for the grill but think you might have meant the others.

All you need to do for the side markers is pull from the tire side of the marker to release the spring clip. If it's too tough to remove by prying with something soft then get a long piece of wood or be careful with a long screwdriver so you can stick in between the fender and the liner. You can see a very small opening there, if you push something long in there you can release the spring from the back. The back markers can be removed the same way, reaching behind the lamp and pushing outward. You might want to look at the back one to see what you are working with, they are much easier to work with.

I still don't get it..lol

Now i have tried everything to get to that front parking light this weekend, even took it to my friends at the oil changing place and they couldn't get but one side to let lose.

Any pics on how to do this.

Are you talking about the two bolts on top when you pop the hood right in the center? Are up under neath the car/truck?

I need more of an explanation please someone. This is very frustrating..

Thanks

Here you go:
1. you can see the screws backed out if you look closely
2. you can see 3 slots for the clips
3. Velcro on the left headlight assembly (right side is the same)
4. You can see the 3 clips
5. you can see the velcro on the back of the spear (same at the other end)

Hope this helps
