I took it to a dealer in Idaho and they couldnt even do it though they said they could for 20$.
Shows what kind of idiots they are getting for labor now. I did it myself ok,took an hour.
I hope I got the spring clip on correctly. I put the points under those round indents.
Its a pain to work the thing without getting the bulb dirty. It has to be clean.
BTW the little push tabs that hold the fender on to the plastic substrate....they break when you pull
them out...can I get a packet of various size push tabs at the Autozone for this kind of use..??
I didnt have any trouble with the rubber boot...dont know why.. 325K miles on 2007 Hatch
