Default Replacing Light Bulb Question

One of my side marker lights is out. Does the lens just pop off? Also do they make LED lights for these? Thanks.

They pop off from the back. The rear ones you reach through the nearest tail light opening. The front you pop off several push pins on the fender well liner and reach in there.
I got these LEDs and really like them.

Thanks for the info. Where did you get those? I would like to see if they have black ones and get a price.

Thanks EV! Appreciate that referral! Been getting slammed with these and they are really starting to pick up. Very nice, totally custom, lifetime warranty on the LEDs.

Very hard to beat to be honest. Check out the thread on them and let us know if we can be of service to you sir!

Thanks again for the kind words EVRose!

I'm going to go with black if I get them. All my lights are blacked out. So, does that mean I would get the smoked ones?

You can so smoked if you'd like. They come out pretty good. The ones with the clear window are fierce!! They light up the best but on the black car you would see that small strip of white leds when they are off. Just like the red car above. But the tradeoff is the brighter lights.
