Anybody done this? Anything crazy involved? Mine are all fogged up and one of the turnsignal housings has a hole in it.

Don't have to take off the fender or anything wild do you?

Truck isn't here at the moment, can't look.
 






You should be able to change them out without removing any other parts. The corner lights are removed by taking out the two screws under the hinged flap above the headlamp. The headlights have special metal clips that are a little tough to get to, but once you get those off and unhook the wiring to the bulb, it will come right out.
 












Watched the video......getting the old light out was not a problem but how in the hell do you wiggle the new one back in under the grill while keeping those goofy little clips on the track?
