I'm ready to jump off a ledge - how the heck do you get the lens out of the turn signal fender bullets for a 67/68/69 GTX?
i broke one off before I realized there was an Allen screw that kept it tight. Now I'm dealing with getting the base of the plastic lens out of the bullet. It doesn't screw out.
Im trying to take the other one out - this time I took out the Allen screw so it turns easily at the lens but it doesn't come out! What the heck was Ma Mopar thinking when she designed this one - why didn't they just thread the plastic lens. Instead it's like a fortress to blast to get it out. These things are pricey so I wanted to get mine rechromed. I still could as I've found new lens but need to get thE old ones out to send the bullets to the rechromer.
Ideas or a little help from my friends - or enemies. I'll take any advice. Thx!
