I am trying to replace my turn signal bulbs and I have the wedge type (flat). I could not figure out if I just have to pull the bulb right up from the holder or do I twist it and it comes off. Can someone help? Thanks!

Pinoydarv:

Do you mean once you've unplugged the bulb or the the base where the bulb sits?


To get to the bulb/base out of the headlight unit it is a twist (it's in your manual actually)
Once you've removed the base and bulb from the headlight unit, like luigi said..it's a pull (takes a bit of force, I just did this recently to put in solaris bulbs)...
