Default 1998 parking light help

I have a 1998 Accord and need to change the Drivers side parking lamp. I am very mechanically able, just easier to ask than start taking things apart. Thanks for your help!! p.s. it is also a V-6.

Sorry I did not specify that I meant a FRONT parking light not a rear tail light.

If it's the lamp housing (like a cracked lens), then you have to replace the whole headlamp housing. Gotta remove the front bumper-skin to get the lower fasteners.


If you just need a new bulb, then you might have to go in through the wheel well. Partially unfasten the plastic inner-fender liner & flex it away so you can reach in there.
