4th Generation How to change the front turn signal bulb on gen4?

It looks like I can't access it without removing the turn signal assembly. I looked on page 5 of the body repair manual and it looks like you just pry it open with a screwdriver. I noticed that there is a plastic arm attached to the top. How do I get the arm off and the assembly out so I can replace the bulb?

Thanks everyone. It was a pretty easy job.

u have to pull that top arm clip out...and then pull out slowly because there is another clip that holds the turn signal to the headlight housing..after that its pretty simple

If you look inside you'll see that it's clipped onto the headlight assembly. Use a flathead on:

1. The ugly push-in screw on top and
2. The clipped portion (press against it, outward...it should pop off it's locked position)

Once done, you'll have to slide the sidelamp out forward to access the bulb.
