park light change

how do you change the park light bulb in the 99 pros. I got the wire out but I can't get the other part out to the bulb. do I have to turn it or something? and then pull?

Is this front or rear?

Front are bayonet, you just turn and pop the bulb out of the socket.

Rears are wedge-type, so you just grip the bulb and pull straight out. It's easy compared to getting to the rear bulbs.

Or is this something else you are talking about?

Well I found out how to do it. It's actually the front I was referring to. I never got them out and even though I know how to now, I still haven't been able to take 1 out myself (got a friend to take them out for me).

You said the rear is more difficult? I've had no trouble gettin' the rear bulbs out, the front park light is a pita for me!

But thanks man!

Ah, for the rears I meant getting the housing off the car was hard.
