I removed this turn signal from my 1967 Plymouth Fury. Can anyone tell me how to dis-assemble to replace a non-working bulb? I can't push it out from the slot the wire goes in. I also can't turn it out from the front. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Almost positive that the lens screw out from the front. I have the lenses w/slots so a large flat blade screwdriver would work removing them. Looks like your lenses are way too far in. May have to damage the lens to get at the bulb.

Maybe someone else can chime in.

Here is the parts book pic, perhaps it will help. It looks like the lens might thread in/out as mentioned above. Without a slot though, I don't see how it would be done.

Just noticed the pic shows a set screw on the bottom. Does your's have that and if so, did you try removing it?

The best way is to remove the allen screw in the bottom of the housing. this holds the light socket in to the unit. Once loose, you should be able to push the whole light socket with lens out the front of the housing with little problem. I usually just use the short end of the allen wrench to push the socket out.
