Anyone knows how to Replace sidemarker bulb on the head light lamp?
The small round light on the corner of the head light, I think it calls a sidemarker light. My when out and I would like to replace the new bulb, can anyone please show me how to get to it so I can replace the bulb?
Thank you
Thank you

I believe you have to change it from the inside fender. Both of my bulbs are blown out, but I don't want to go through all of that trouble just to replace two tiny bulbs. But, mind you they are actually pretty bright.

I think it's called an auxillary light. You have to pull down the wheel well. Finding guides for changing out the fog lights will get you there, too.
If you get a socket wrench and a screw driver you can pull the wheel well down.
I replaced mine with some super bright SMD T10 LED lights.

Just did this a couple of weeks ago, along with all the side marker lamps and lenses in clear with PIAA Extreme White lamps. I followed the excellent instructions posted here:

But, now the link says the site is temporarily disabled. I'd try again later to see if it's back up.
But, the short answer is you have to remove the 5 or 6 screws and bolts that hold the front of the fender liner in place, then peel the liner back out of the way. It's much easier if you remove the wheel first. The screws and bolts are located on the top edge of the liner along the curve of the wheel well, and on the bottom corner where the liner attaches to the front splash panel. Once the liner is out of the way, just reach up in there and r&r the lamps.
