Hey guys, I need some more help regarding my 4x4 light. I bought replacement bulb (#74 from AutoZone) and got the new bulb in the little black socket, now I have no idea how to get the little socket back into the indicator light bezel.


My first guess was the socket must be inserted through the back of the bezel, and then twisted to lock into place. However, I'm having a hard time getting the gauge cluster/ indicator light bezel to pull out. I noticed in the upper right hand side of the indicator bezel is a little gray switch looking thing. Is there anyway to seperate the bezel from the cluster? I would really like to be able to get everything back together today, and this is the only thing keeping me from doing it. Thanks for any help!

They're kind of a PITA. I just pulled one of these yesterday at the yard for the first time to swipe all of the bulbs, and practice my cluster removal skills for when I have to pull mine. I found complication in getting the bottom 2 screw hole brackets to clear the switch housings below. In your first picture, its the white tab in the bottom left, and matching one on the right, that I was getting hung up on, eventually broke it by prying too hard. Oops! :-) Sure is nice to practice on someone elses junker before tearing into mine though. I love my local pic-n-pull.
