Clearance Lights - Replacement

I have found it necessary to replace a couple of bulbs in my 2008 Lance clearance lights. Are the lens held on with screws or simply held there by the sealant? If so, do I just pry them off to gain access to the bulb? To reinstall, remove all the sealant and reseal?

Thanks,

John

Thanks, I'll just pop them off. I didn't want to try this only to find out too late that there was some type of secret latch that wasn't obvious.

Most of mine were "glued" on by the sealant, just kind of some "extra" that oozed up and over, so you might have to cut it with a knife to help them pop off.

The lens will pop off with a screw driver
but be careful not to crack them

because on a dark night when I am approaching your vehicle on a narrow road, I would like to know that you are an oversize vehicle.


I would like the driver approaching me under this situation to know I am an oversized vehicle. They are there for safety, but they do look cool too.

X2 my crystal ball doesnt work all the time, having functional clearance lights makes it easier.

Should be an amber lens on a white plastic base,right? The lens should be a friction fit, the base will be screwed + caulked / butyled

I replaced all the clearance lights on my 2007 TC with LEDs earlier this year. After that many years a lot of them were worn/cloudy/cracked. The LED ones look a lot nicer.
