Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

These side markers are actually . they can be pretty easy. You push in on the front, and the front goes below the bumper cover, and you try and slide it forward. It doesn't slide forward easily. Carefully insert a screwdriver right under here and get it to slide forward. While you're pushing it in get it to slide forward with the screwdriver and then it'll come out. You just pull firmly. There's your bulb. That just pulls from the socket. You can push this back in.

A new one from 1A Auto is exactly the same as the original. It has this little tab that floats. Reconnect the light. I kind of put the light in, like it should be, and push the front in, and get it to move forward, and then as you're pushing it in let it slide backwards. It comes back. You might need to just take your screwdriver, kind of push in on the light. Put the screwdriver right in, pry it forward, and pull the light out a little bit. There you go.
