signal light replacement

[nodrog321]

Hi, I have a 98 silhouette and i was wonder how to replace the light NEXT to the right signal light. so i guess its the day time running light? basically the one between the actual head light and the side signal indicator. the manual told me to unscrew the side screw and pull away from body. but there still seems to be something intact.. thanks alot!

On my 2000 Silo I found it easier to remove the wingnuts for the headlight assembly at the same time to make it easier to remove the signal assembly.

Once the side assembly is clear to remove, pull toward you fairly hard to disconnect the pull/push attachment at the back of the assembly.

hmm which way do i pull it? towards the front of the car? i dont want to break any of the plastic locks to secure it to the body..

thanks for the reply btw

when the headlight is out the maker light is pulled straight out the front of the van. there is a metal clip over the plastic on the back of the light that helps hold it in. it will give the imperssion think iam going to bust it. then it pops out. i use the 4157NALL (long life )bulb in the turn/run location rather than 3157NALL bulb. side marker is a 194 bulb.
