i have a mcs and want to put a clear bulb in the fender indicator. i opened the bonnet reached inside to take it out, and have been unable to push it from the inside. how do i get to the bulb?

also for the front bumper indicators..what model clear lights fit there?

Grip the lens and slide it towards the front of the car, gently ease the edge of the lens, nearest the door up. I used a small electrical screw driver to lift the edge of the lens. Reverse the procedure to re-insert the lens.

so i should be trying to take the lens out only and not the whole grill insert?

Correct. You can get a smoked lens, blue lens, I've even seen a pink/red lens. My neighbour has an E/B MCS with matching lens.

Try this link. These bulbs are the 'in bulbs' in the UK for Clear indicator lights. They do ship to the US or may be you have a local supplier. http://www.powerbulbs.com/products/p...d=osd&type=IND
