Default Turning lights...

Can someone tell me how to remove the turninglights on the front.
Should I remove the inner fender(plastic) or what.
Mine seem to be loosened or never been bolted.
Maybe some pictures on how to fix them.

I take it you are asking how to remove or gain access to the entire housing? If so, there is an access panel on the underside of each of the front corners of the bumper. They come off with about six or seven 7 mm screws IIRC.

To completely remove the housings you'll need to get the brake duct out of the way. Then there are two fairly small screws (don't remember size), one on either side of the curved turn signal housing. Take both of those out and then remove the spring that is on top of the housing. Finally, disconnect the electrical connections and remove the housing.

Bolt on side of housing is 7mm. Bolt towards the center of the housing is 10mm. Just replaced mine 3 weeks ago. Not hard to do.
