Jim,
Good work not forcing anything!
Early cars had inside removable sockets.
Later cars (or later lights) have external screws to remove
the plastic lenses to access the bulbs.
Welcome to Tigers!
Gary

Hi All,

I am afraid this one is going to show exactly how new I am to Tiger
ownership...

Yesterday I noticed my passenger side brake light was out. Driver's side is
working, so I figured it was a bulb. I have extras on hand...simple enough to
change...not so fast.

Workshop manual says get tp bulb holder from back through trunk. I reached in
and removed the female connector from the back of the bulb holder but I can
not seem to get the bulb holder out to get at the bulb. It does not seem to
budge either by unscrewing or pulling. Since I have limited knowledge I was
reluctant to apply too much pressure.

I know this is pretty basic stuff...but any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Jim
