Replacing rear indicator bulb - NB8A

Postby greenMachine » Wed Jun 28, 2006 11:51 pm

The GM has blown its first taillight bulb. Never having had to do this before, I undid the screw at the top, undid the two nuts inside the boot, but it still doesn't want to come out. The outside bolt does not want to come out for some reason, the unit just seems to be caught on some thing on that side.

Am I missing something? :?
I never met a horsepower I didn't like (thanks bwob)

From memory there is a clip that holds it in place. If the top screw and all the nuts are undone just give it a good tug and it should be in your hands.
