Default signal lamps

well i was looking at my bulbs last night, doing the "do they work" inspection, and i found my side marker bulb on the lower signal lens is burnt out. and i looked at it today and couldnt figure out how to get at it just from looking. does the whole light assembly have to come out or...?

You have to remove the corner grill. 2 simple screws on top, and 2 on the bottom.

You have to remove it? I thought you could reach inside and twist the socket out from under the hood?

Maybe mine is different, but my signal twists out too. Maybe it isn't supposed to.
