How big a job is it to replace a burned out front turn signal bulb on a Cadillac CTS? It looks like a big job and it appears that a lot of wheel well material must be removed. Are there any detailed instructions or pictures available showing how this is done?

You must remove the headlamp in order to replace the turn signal bulb. To do this, raise and support vehicle. Remove the push-in retainers on the air deflector to allow access to the fascia extension retainers. Open the hood. Remove the push-in retainers that secure the appropriate side of teh grille and fascia to the upper tie bar. Remove the first push-pin retainer past the center in order to allow the grille to flex. Remove the front fascia extension. Remove the bolts that hold front fascia to fender. Pull fascia forward to align with fascia studs with enlarged portion of the hole within the key slot in the fender. Gently pull front fascia downward to disengage it from the fender. Remoe 3 bolts from headlamp and disengage headlamp washer hose (if equipped) to remove headlamp.
