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.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace as well as service the bulb in a side marker light on this 1996 Chevy Tahoe. We show you in the passenger side, but the driver side is the same procedure. The items you'll need for this include a new side marker light from 1AAuto.com, a Phillips screwdriver and a 13mm socket and ratchet.
Start off by removing these four Phillips screws. We'll just fast-forward as Don does this. Once those removed, pull the light out, and you just twist the sockets counterclockwise to remove them.
Now to service the bulb on your side marker light. You just twist the socket out and the bulb pulls straight out. You push your new one in, and then the socket twist back into the side marker light.
To change the assembly, you want to remove these two 13mm nuts, so just twist out that socket and remove those two nuts. We'll just fast-forward here as Don does this. Once those are removed, the side marker light will pull right out.
On the left is the old side marker light; on the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical, and they'll mount exactly the same.
Push your new side marker light into place and replace those two 13mm nuts. Then twist your socket back into place.
Now take your parking light and twist those two parking light sockets into place by just twisting them clockwise to lock them. Then push your parking light assembly into place. Make sure all four of those holes line up, and replace those four Phillips screws. Then you're all set.
