Back light cover removal

August 30, 2020, 07:24:55 pm

I got the side lights and the top front lights(I took the inside panel off).
But, see picture, how do I get the back light bulb out. There is just a little panel inside.

If you are talking about the third brake light it looks like it is held in with 2 screws.

Ok. I thought you had to do it from the inside.
Also there are many choices in voltage. Does it matter.

The lights on the front(orange 5 of them) and on the back(Red 7 of them) all come off from the outside , 2 screws And maybe  some silicon hold them on.. you May have to pry just a little to get them off. They are fairly cheap to replace if they look tired.. the bulb is 194 I replaced the bulbs with led bulbs, yellow bulbs up front red in the back. The 3rd brake light just has 2 screws. I think it used 194 bulbs too. I replace the whole fixture on my 2000 U320 Because it was showing it's age too, it was pretty cheap too. Fixture is off of a early 90's ford econoline van.. new lenses really help wake up the appearance of your exterior

Thanks, the 194 worked.
However I was able to get access to the front light from inside the coach after I took the little panel off.
But on the back I will just do it from the outside.
