Default Replacing a turn signal bulb

Just replaced a rear turn signal bulb. Used the link below as a guideline. Dealer quoted me $37.50 CDN (bulb warranty is only good to 20,000kms here and I'm at 30K). I paid $6.27 CDN for the bulb and it took less than 10 minutes. I expect the next will take less than 5 minutes.


Dealer gave me the bulb without packaging so I wiped it down pre-install and used a Kleenex to handle it to avoid finger oils. I also used a small slot screwdriver to pry out the plastic snaps and a large slot with a rag to pop the housing out of the body so I didn't damage the paint.


Anyway, hope this helps.

You should specify that this was not on a 2014. 2014 Durangos are just as easy and the same process, but much more expensive.

Sorry, thought my tagline explained my year. Why is a 2014 so more expensive?

LED. And when I replaced my broken tail light, it didn't look like there was a bulb that could be removed. You have to replace the entire light itself. That's $400.
