Park light replacement

Sorry to post this. A while ago I found a post that described how to replace the park lights that are next to the headlight. I can't for the life of me find that post with the search function so I'm asking in a new thread :-/

I remember someone said there should be a screw that one could unscrew and the bulb should pop out. But I can't find anything of the sort. If someone could supply me with a picture that'd be great.

I have a '97 TL btw.

IIRC, 97s and 98s have a metal cover that comes off with a 10mm socket giving easier access to the bulb socket. To remove the bulb socket, just twist it counter-clockwise and it will pop out. To reinstall, turn on the parking lights to give you an easier time seeing the hole, and turn clockwise to lock it in.

~Cheers~

Its on drivers side only. Its a small holder for the cruise control vacuum holder thing. By taking it off you have better access to the connector.
