I need to replace my front 1157 turn signal bulb. The shop manual on pages 12-3 & 12-5 is very confusing as to how to access this bulb. I am not sure if the shop manual recommends bulb replacement by removing the parking lamp lens or by removing the bulb socket from behind the grille.
My experience with other vehicles suggests that I twist the socket out of the front grille housing but I would appreciate any comments. I am the original owner of this car and this is the first time that I have had any bulb failures. Also, is there a specific direction I need to turn the socket for removal from the grille (CW or CCW looking from the rear of the car towards the front).
