Replacing rear side lamp lense...
I just noticed one of mine is cracked down the middle. Im going to get a new later today and was wondering how to remove and install a new one. Thanks for any help. Vince :)

Re: Replacing rear side lamp lense... (Vinzvette)
The easiest way is to to remove the outer most tail-light and enter from there. I replaced my red ones with the amber ones. The new fixture comes
unthreaded(plastic), but you'll have enough room for a small socket and/or
wrench. Don't tighten too much or else it will snap.
Good Luck :cheers:

The rear tail light way is the factory recommended way. Having done it both ways, to me it seems easier to unscrew the two screws in the rear fender liner, and bend the plastic forward, reach up inside.
On a convertible, this is definitely easier.
