Headlight removal........quick question

Hey, i want to remove my Turn signal bulb in the headlight & replace it with a clear/platinum bulb, but I want to kno if there's an easier way then taking out all of the screws that hold the headlight in, because there's like 3 up top and then one or two underneith the tire well


and does anyone have the bulb part number i should get

thanks

Whoa... slow down a bit, you don't need to take the headlight out to change those bulbs. Look for the plug in the back of the headlamp where the turn signal is, turn counter clockwise and it will come out. Pull the bulb out and replace, just don't touch the glass part of the bulb when reinstalling. Oils from your fingers will cause the bulb to pop.

And the part number for the turn signal bulb is 3157.
