OK...... does anyone know how to change the front amber running light bulbs? I see one screw. I unscrewed it but I dont know how to get the other side unfastened.

Did I post this in the wrong area???? I realllllllly want to put new bulbs in without cracking the plastic. Someone please give me a heads up on how to remove the amber lenses so I can pop these suckers in

Your 92 camry has only one screw. Take that off and you have to pull in the light towards you. It gets tricky since that light is held in place by a small suction clip. Sometimes it takes alot of elbow grease to get it off. Once its off the rest is easy

A suction clip?

i was pulling the lens off after I unscrewed the one screw but the thing would NOT pull out. I felt if I pulled any harder it would crack the plastic. But how is a suction clip holding it in place?

I cant believe I cant undo this darn thing

It locks in at opposite side of the screw. I guess if you can pry it out a bit spray some penetrating oil and see what happens! If you really do snap it off. PM me I have another factory set sitting around

Thank God! Thanks man! If you didnt tell me I wouldnt have tried again.

np

btw, what colour you replacing with?

Im just putting another 194LL bulb in there and its white. Also put a 1156 on both sides.

I replaced all the bulbs on the exterior of the car except the headlights and the high brake light.
Ohhhhhh..... the backup lights are BOTH out. I didnt realize it until someone drove away in it.
Im hoping its a fairly trouble free install for those
