Marker Light Problems
I was trying to remove the lenses for the marker lights (lights between fogs and headlights) and found that the screw doesn't unscrew, it just turns. Anyone elese have this problem? What should I do so that I can get the lenses off to clean them and change the bulbs?
Yeah, my screw turned fine, the screw only goes into a little tab of metal and mine was as rusty as it could be so it was a little stuborn at first but usually when a screw doesnt come out for me because it feels like its slipping i usually put some force to kinda push the screw to one side of what its threaded into to try and grab somthing...I still gotta clean mine, i gotta search on what to use though. I have maguires scratch x but it says thats for paint swirls and scratches, not plastics.

^^ that's not a good idea. It's easy to shine them up from the outside without even removing them. Also, if you remove the covers, and put them back on, then water leaks in there easier. If you remove the cover and don't put them back on, then you are risking a rock hitting your bulb, breaking it, and shorting out a fuse.
then do you just change the bulb from the backside? I tried removing my marker lights and no matter what I try they won't unscrew. my led bulbs just came in yesterday and I really want to get them put in today.
