I have a 2010 Hyundai Elantra Touring. The right rear side marker bulb is burned out. My owner's manual shows how to remove the rear light assembly. I can see the inside of the car where the side marker lens is fastened to the body. I don't know what to do to release the lens from the body so that I can change the light bulb. Can you help?

Hey STEVE,

Here are all of the information we have on replacing the side marker bulbs, It looks like there are some mounting bolts that need to be undone from the inside.

Turn the light socket 1/4 turn and it should come out of the lens so you can replace the bulb.

Please let us know happens so it will help others.

Best, Ken
