Simple Bulb replacement??? Parking light.
1990 Accord. I am trying to replace the "parking light" bulb, front right, by the battery. For that matter, how will I replace the turn indicator bulb when it burns out? Clearly related.
I unscrewed the single screw on the plastic "arm" (from above) that seems to secure the whole fixture, however there seems to be another screw at the bottom that "flares out" a plastic extension that runs horizontal toward the battery.
How in the world do I get to this thing??!!! My Haynes manual indicates to remove the single screw and they may need to pry them?

If it doesnt come right out..just jiggle it a little it will come out...

if jiggling doesn't work (i.e. it feels like your going to bust the fixture), shoot a TINY bit of wd-40 onto the attachment point.
I couldn't safely remove my corner lights w/o doing this.
