Did that, but the assembly seems to be hanging on something.

Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks in advance.

Status: offline 		Once you remove the thumbscrew the lens has a tab at the bottom of the lens on the headlight side of the lens which has a metal clip on it which inserts to a holder to secure that portion of the lens. Pull out  on the headlight side of the lens to unclip the clip. On the fender side there are 2 plastic prongs which are inserted into 2 holes to align and to secure the lens on the fender side of the lens. hope this helps.

Thanks for the help. I got the daylight running lamp lens out and changed the bulb per your instructions.

Now I find that the metal clip is missing and I now I have a new challenge, finding a replacement clip. LoL

Yeah it goes back together all right and looks all right. It's just knowing something is missing. LoL
