You will need to remove the light assembly bezel, first. That is the black or chrome frame around your Headlight, turn signal light and side marker light. Then remove the screws holding your turn signal light assembly in. Pull it out. the light socket on the back is a quarter turn and it pulls out. Once you have the socket out push in and turn the bulb and it pulls right out. This bulb is what is called a 2 stage bulb. (it has 2 filaments). One for running lights and the second to flash bright for the turn signal. Make sure you get the right kind of bulb. Put everything back together in reverse order and check it out. You'll need to turn the key on to get your turn signals to work. Hope this helps you out. All you need is a phillips screwdriver, a new bulb and about 5 minutes of your time.
