Replacing 2G Turn Signal Light

[TurboBob]

OK, I removed the plastic cover in the fender to get to the turn signal light. I got the plug off the light. I can barley get my fingers in there. Now how do I remove the bulb? Does the assembly just pull out or do I have to turn it in one direction? Thanks for any info.

Thanks.

But, for the life of me I can’t get enough grip on the light housing to turn it. Looks like I’ll have to remove the headlight assembly.

Yeah, it's definitely a pain to reach in there. The way I did it was by positioning myself with my thighs up against the front quarter panel (driver's side at least) and reached my right hand down and into that little space that they give you to get in there and I could get a good enough grip that way to push in and twist it. Maybe the fact that I have small girly hands helped too though, . I went through all of that pain of gettin' my bulbs switched to blue and then I came to the realization a few minutes afterwards that I still have to take that stupid orange piece out of my headlights. Good luck man!

Dont take out the headlights youre going to find out that is way more of a pain in the as*, just do what he^ said. that should work, i used both my index fingers one pushing and one pulling and it was damn hard. I did the same thing put some blue lights in compared them and with the blue in even though I still had the orange it was a more sudtle orange so i left them.
