Default replacing left front turn signal bulb

Hi guys...I'm new here. I hope I can get some help. I have a '95 S10 Blazer. I recently had a minor accident and had to have my entire front bumper assembly replaced by Maaco. I supplied the used bumper I found at LKQ in Florida, but Maaco did not replace my left front turn signal bulb.

Anyone have a step-by-step on the headlight/turn signal removal so I can do it myself.??
Thanks in advance,
9ball

I did a search on the forum and could not find anything on this subject.

It should be similar to this if not the same.

‪Auto Repair: Parking Signal Light Installation Chevy S10 Blazer 1998-05 - 1AAuto.com‬‏ - YouTube

I didn't know the link would post the video. Hope that didn't violate forum rules. I did check the FAQ page and didn't see anything on it. So mods if it has to be deleted please do so.

Thanks for the reply wrenchturner.........This video from 1aauto covers the headlight removal for the 2000 Blazer. My 95 S10 Blazer is similar, but not the same as the 98-2000. From my understanding the 95-97 year models are alike.

But thanks anyway..! I guess I'll keep looking..!

Ok, is the turn signal in the bumper or next to the headlight and do you have sealed beam head lights?

If they are in the bumper look under the vehicle at the back of the bumper and you should see the bulb by turning counterclockwise.

If it is next to the healight, you will need a torz bit driver to remove the lense to access the bulb.

Hope that helps.

Thanks wrench..

I finally got smart and removed 6 screws holding the grille in, so I could see what I was doing. I unscrewed the two Torz screws and could move the head light out far enough to replace the bulb.

I posed this replacement question to an auto mechanic friend of mine, and his online 'All Data Procedures' doesn't even list a repair procedure for the '95-97 Blazer........I thought this was weird!!!
