    one side of them can be pushed in, and then pushed forward/back. I forget which side is pushed in though.

      On the back of the lite there is a lever as you can see with the new one press on the light on the end with the lever and while it is depressed it needs to slide back so the two little tabs on the opposite end of the light becomes free, it is a push/slide action all in one and the light will pop out. Sometimes you have to try more than once to get it, but once you get it, it is easy.

        woo-hoo! Time for a play-by-play!

        push in front:


        slide unit forward (might need to use a screwdriver with a rag wrapped around it)



        slide it forward (it towards the front of the car) so the 'tab' on it clears the bumper, and then pull it out!


        Pull the connector "straight" out of the light housing to remove it (ie. don't twist!)
