Removing front parking lights( Update: New lights Installed)

Post by BADs Crew »

I received all my new lights today but due to the rain I couldn't install them. I have had the rear lights out before, but is there any trick to pulling the front ones?

They should only be held in with plastic clips. I have a gmc but, s-10's have a plastic clip you pull up on and remove the light asssembly just the same.

like doughboy said, should be two plasic retaining clips that you pull straight up on.
the passenger side one is hard to get back in without taking the battery out, at least is was for me :lol:

The tail lights don't have that orange strip in them. It was caused by the flash on the cam.
