Front right turn signal bulb replacement?

[98LXand99LC]

What's the trick to change the bulb for the front right turn signal on GX470 '06. Tried removing the entire lamp assembly but there seems to be a difficult to reach nut preventing me from getting it out. Hard to believe this is the only way to get at the bulb. Any help would be appreciated

This is the same 1156 amber bulb that's used for the right side DRL, correct? (It is on my wife's '03, because when it burns out - which is remarkably often - the indicator blinks rapidly) If I'm correct (and if you're talking about the passenger side bulb - which is the right side of the car), you can get to it in one of two ways: you can (a) remove the plastic rivets that hold on the engine bay cover on the right side, remove that cover, and you should be able to get to the cover/bulb socket that holds it in very easily (the driver's side bulb is behind the battery and it can only be accessed, from a practical standpoint, from below the car) or (b) you can lie down under the right front of the car and reach up and remove the cover/bulb socket. Going from underneath is much easier, in my opinion, because nothing else has to be removed.

Hope this helps!

DNP, thanks yes I believe so. I got it from underneath.
