Clear Side Lights / Change bulb

How to change the sidelight bulb or change them to the newer facelifts.

Is your boxster looking like this?

Do you want it to look like this?
Well here is how.

The first step is to grasp the edge of the side light

While grasping the edge give it a firm pull away from the car.

After pulling the side marker all the way out a connector with a spring retaining clip is revealed. The metal retaining clip is also visible.

Simply press the retaining spring in and pull on the connector. It should slip off the side marker without difficulty

After removal of the existing side marker all that remains is the connector.

Take the clear side marker and slip on the connector while pressing the spring retaining clip.

Slip the front of the side marker into
the front of the cavity. There is a clip on the front of the side marker that latches into the cavity.

If the metal retaining clip on the side marker won't latch and your fingers are too big then just use a screwdriver to press on the clip while pressing on the side marker.
