anyone familiar with how to remove the rear blinker housings from the bumper? i spent forever trying to figure it out and i got one screw out but there is still something holding it in.

i searched also but had no luck. does the rear bumper have to be removed?

 

I think the rear bumper has to be removed, but maybe someone can fill in and confirm this.

 

I had to take the bumper off, I have a friend that works at a body shop and he took it off in like thirty seconds. I probably would have taken thirty minutes to figure it out.

 

^^^^

Does your friend do write-ups on 'how to remove the 350z rear bumper quickly' ??? I would be very interested :P

 

Step 1 - tie rope to bumper
Step 2 - tie rope to truck
Step 3 - drive truck away from Z

 

Yeah, you have to remove the rear bumper to get to those lights. I have done it twice now and still takes me a while. Too bad you are in FL or I can probably help you. PM me your email and I can give you a few threads on other sites to help you remove the bumper.

 

Emailed you back!

 

are you guys freaking serious? your removing the whole rear bumper JUST to get to the signal/reverse lights??? LOL

its stickied at the top of this forum... all you have to do is remove the taillight, bam instant access.

 

The link you posted is for accessing the blinker/reverse lights (i.e. to change the bulbs). He is asking about removing the whole housing (i.e. for painting/smoking or changing them to Euro-spec ones). Totally different!

 

thanks for clearing that up... i knew something was off. lol

 

thanks man! all this work for stupid blinker housing...

 

Still got this?? Need help

 

You need to remove the rear bumper...
