I spend most my time here reading and learning. Tonight I need a little advice. I am trying to remove the rear tail light (driver's side- if there is a difference) from my truck to replace the turn signal bulb. The owners manual states that I should push the red clip and pull the wiring connector from the lens....not on my truck. Is there a better manual or web site that I could go to for more information??? Thanks in advance
From my 2003 1500 factory service manual. Best $90 accessory I could find.

Thanks for the information Hey, one question, how do I "break" the wiring connector from the unit??? I can not seem to break that joint and I do not understand what "Push the red tab" means... some days I miss the old cars/trucks with simpler things...
