Rear Tail Lights Breakdown - light fixture

ok, maybe somewhere else on the forum, but I’m on my phone. How do you remove the fixtures from the housing? See pics, and looks like water got in the last person’s project! Thanks

The answer to removing the bulb sockets is: (Very Carefully). LOL Sorry, If I remember they are flanged on both sides (inside and out) of the hole in the housing. I think you have to very gingerly bend the inner flange just enough the clear the hole. I jus saw a post on this fairly recently. If I find it I will link it here. Then again , someone else might chime in with more detail. Good Luck!

Inner like the bulb side correct? Not pigtail side?

Deoxit is your best tool here .

Essentially, you have to destroy the socket to get it out.

Yeah, I bent one out and after close examination found that is true!
