    Lpl

    I know this is stupid, but how do you change the license plate light bulb? I've looked from the inside, and I can't get my hand in that area. It's cold out, and I don't want to stand out trying to figure it out. Thanx

    There are 2 metric screws above the license plate that you need to remove to access the bulb. Have fun.

    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    Above the license plate there is a small bracket that holds the lens, it is held in place with two pins, with a slot in the side. they twist by hand but don't un-screw, am I in the wrong place?

    Maybe yours was changed before? I hope that you can get this job done without removing the whole assembly.

    I think so, It was these 2 little screws on either side of the light. Once you pull them out the light will drop out.

    I pulled the two little pins down, and the assembly came down, I unscrewed the bulb holder, and that was it. Thanks for all the help.

    Glad you got help! The title of this thread had me guessing as to what it was about.
