1:15 PM EDT Mon Feb 4, '13 Hello All, It's been so long since I've been on, I forgot HOW TO find the right place to go to ASK....my 2007 has been THAT Trouble free now @ 65,700+miles..UNTIL ...Saturday I came home from shopping, park my baby & see a hole in my driver's side tail light. I've been so VERY SUPER, EXTRA careful since adopting "him" July 24th and now this. Signal & break lites WORK, running light-nope. My wife googled net prices & they were $129 & up just for the cover, lites extra. I didn't look, I'm still sick over it...yea, guilty of being a BIG BABY. I plan on calling the dealer BUT, will wait to hear any & all suggestions. Your attention is greatly appreciated. FYI I'm getting 52.2MPG combined ! (thank God . Yet, the $ I've saved the past3+ months on gas will soon go to a light assembly. Thanks in advance, Folks. ImOCD Don ps do I need to upload a pic to help in getting any answers ??

Hi DES___, I should have included--HOW CAN I REPLACE this light assemble myself ?? Instructions ANYWHERE in the forum ??? Thanks for the quick replay. Don
Hi Again desmondlee, Just finished watching the entire video (the preceding ad was for Honda thought that was funny as I'm looking for any type of humour in this situation). WOW, it CAN be done but, seems like I'd need a lot of patience & the laptop w/ the video right close by which is no problem. I've taken apart PCs w/ confidence as I went to school for it-this is unexplored territory as I am notorius for NEVER getting parts to fit the same way they came out. I DO plan to call my FRIENDLY & TRUSTED dealer to get the price as soon as I press send here. I, a, figure whatever they give me a price for will certainly INSPIRE me to get a long neck 10mm ratchet. Thanks again & hopefully I'll keep ya'll posted. I'm still amazed as to the "How did this possible happen ?" Must have been a subversive Anti-Pulse & Glide type !!!!
