96 Ls 400 Front Side Marker Light Removal

96lxs · November 1, 2009

Hi everyone!

Does anyone know how to replace the front side marker light for 96 ls 400? I tried to do it by removing one phillip screw that was on it but it seems not wanting to come out and I don't want to force it and possibly break it. What is the proper procedure for removing it?

Thanks...

you just have to pull forward on the lamp to get it out, and be careful not to break the extention that the screw goes into.

this should help:

it is REALLY easy to break the plastic extension. You need to have the angle correct and a little luck. I broke mine taking it off required some JB Weld.

Thanks Billydpowell and VBdenny for your response..

The one I am trying to replace is the amber side marker light below the clear one. Sorry for not being very specific... Again, I don't want to break anything and make the situation worse than it is. :) :D

very same principal, take the screw out and pull forward, just a pin holding it on, and if you want to remove the longer one, there is a hidden screw behind the one you just removed.

nothing to it...
