Default How do you remove the front running light?

I was installing a new turn signal bulb in the front and must not have had the bulb all the way in the socket and the bulb is laying inside of the light. There's no way I can get my fingers in there to get it out, so it looks like I'm going to have to remove the whole light itself to get the bulb out.

Thanks,

Rick

Default Removing front running light

Remove the Headlight module, first, remove the hood pin, then the three bolts from the underside of the headlight. Then there are three bolts and a spring attaching the light to the bumper. Should take less than 1 hr.

Thanks for the reply.

I ended up just moving the brake duct inlet out of the way and that gave me more of a straight shot at it, then I wrapped a piece of duct tape around my finger and that worked!
