Author Message   Paul L Schexnayder (Pablo83) Posted on Wednesday, June 19, 2002 - 05:16 pm:    I need to replace the bulb in one of those tiny side marker lights. I started to pry the lens off, but it felt like I was about to break something. How to I get to the bulb without breaking anything.   Robbie (Robbie) Posted on Wednesday, June 19, 2002 - 06:12 pm:    twist and pull the bulb and holder from the backside.   Jeff Sittler (Mindblender) Posted on Wednesday, June 19, 2002 - 07:17 pm:    Paul, Here are the directions from the workshop manual: Remove: ------ 1. Push the lens to the right and then puill outward to detach lens and bulb holder from the panel. 2. Turn lens anti-clockwise and remove from bulb holder. 3. Pull bulb from holder. Refit: ----- 4. Reverse removal procedure.   Paul L Schexnayder (Pablo83) Posted on Thursday, June 20, 2002 - 06:10 pm:    Thanks guys. I would have never guessed. BTW, what shop manual would you suggest? I hate Haynes manuals, but the only other one I've seen is $130. Is it worth the cost?   Anonymous Posted on Monday, June 24, 2002 - 11:16 pm:    If a light bulb created this much hoopla then anything would be worth the cost. By the way, locate a rave disc instead of a book.   Dean Brown (Deanbrown3d) Posted on Tuesday, June 25, 2002 - 05:35 am:    Anon = prick, by the way!   Roger Fastring Posted on Tuesday, June 25, 2002 - 05:50 am:    You can find the manual for less, call discount rovers, but it will still be ALOT more then the Haynes. I use both. You get what you pay for and look at it this way: without the manual, if you have to do ONE trip to a shop to change something that the manual would have made clear, its paid for itself. I do alot of work on all my cars and this is the only one I've bought the "expensive" manual for and I think its been worth it so far.   Bill Molnar (Circekat) Posted on Tuesday, June 25, 2002 - 10:56 pm:    My first purchase after my 94 Disco was the shop manual. The 94 died and now I have a 98 and the same manual. Not only have I enjoyed it, a few others here have benefitted as well.
