How to replace the head light ????
I have a 1993 Lexus SC 400. The Front Parking light bulb that is contained in the Headlight assembly is not working. The owner's manual gives no instruction on how to change / replace this bulb and only lists it as 5W showing no additional discription.. The head light assenbly has metal clips on te plastic lense and looks like the the plastic lense could be removed ?? But I really don't want to start prying on the lense...
My question is: How do I access this baulb for replacement ????

No...
The headlight has one bolt on top and two on the end, hidden by the fender liner. If you pry apart the lens like that, you're sure to destroy it.
The bulbs are in sockets that twist out from the back, but they're pretty tough to get to with the headlight in place. Removing the battery or air box will help with finger space, especially on the driver's side.
FYI, it's your first post, so I'm guessing you didn't search for answers prior. There are lots of old posts covering this sort of thing.
