ha thanks. i think i figured it out i need to remove the bumper but its got some crazy german bolt there so i am going to go to the home depot tommarow and try to find a tool to get it out

i dont think you need to take the bumper out to do any light work.
and the crazy german bolt you are talking about, you mean the Torx under the bumper? just use an 8mm allen wrench.

oh, you want to replace the whole housing. yes, just use a hex/allen wrench

I'm sorry, I must be missing something here. Isn't a screwdriver all you need to change the front turn signals/lenses?
