To replace the bulb of the side turn signal, you need to remove the light from the fender; the procedure is very simple since the light is secured to the fender with plastic clips that hold it in place; press the light forward to compress the front clip and allow the light to slide forward, creating the space needed to remove the rear part; once the light is removed, disengage the bulb holder and replace the bulb, reversing the steps for reassembly: insert the front part first, press forward, and snap the rear part into place.
