Default Front Sidemarker Bulb

I have included a pic...I am trying to figure out how to replace the bulb in the front passenger side marker...

It doesnt just pop out, and if it does maybe Im just not being rough enough...
Thanks for any help...

you need a plastic bone tool.. to slide behind it and pop the light out.. pop thecurved side out then it slides out.. be careful they crack if there old..

could always just take your splash pan or w/e the plastic thing under your bumer off and replace it from behind.

Is this bone tool available at a local parts store or the dealer??

Replacing it from behind doesnt sound too bad either...

dont waste your time removing the splash pan.. if you cant find a bone tool .. just turn your wheel in.. and remove the torx in the inner arch and stick your hand in andpop it out.. but for me thats too much work..

X2 Jag - Nobody stole it. When they dry out and crack....they just fall out when you hit a bump.

I got all four of mine out without any tool.
Referred to the owners manual for some tips
but it was pretty easy.
I just slid them back on the front ones
and slid them forward on the rear ones.
The side markers slide back.
