Replacing Rear Turn Signals

[Junior]

I'm seeing all this talk about white turning signals and noticed that I don't feel like getting booked for this simple change that I made in the summer.

I was wondering if there is any easier way to replace the rear turning signals, then having to remove the entire light? The reason I ask is becuase when I changed them to white, I had to remove the entire light and then ended up droping one of the screw inside, and took me like half hour to find it again... http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dontgetit.gif

OK I was wondering about that!!!

Are the 3 plastic circle things to access the bulbs OR to acess the screws to take the rear lenses off?

I think its the second!

[Junior]

Yes those three circle things allow access to the screws holdin the light in place not bulbs! http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

not the same stuff your smoking.... http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

did you ever replace the bulbs????
this is on a Protege5.

when you take off the 3 circles the only thing you can access is the 3 bolts holding the light in place.

all kidding aside though, have you changed u'r rear turn signals without removing the entire light?

THERE IS NO OTHER WAY YOU MUST REMOVE THE LIGHT
Look at the pic below. the hole in the centre is for the wire harness. the other holes are for the studs that hold the light to the body.

DONE
