You'll probably have to remove the trunk lining to find the mounting screws or brackets. There is no reason to break any tabs if the procedure is done properly.

Patience is a virtue. :)

FORGET PATIENCE. WE BROKE THE TAB OFF AND FOUND THE TIP OF A SCREW, WHICH WE YANKED ON UNTIL WE GOT IT OFF AND COULD SEE THE MECHANISM. ONCE YOU REMOVE THE TWO OUTSIDE SCREWS, PEEL THE LINER BACK AND REMOVE ONE NUT. THEN PULL THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY STRAIGHT BACK, WITHOUT WIGGLING OR GETTING COCKEYED. THE TAB HOLDS A PLASTIC SLOT WHICH HAS A ROD THAT SLIDES RIGHT OUT, BUT YOU MUST PULL THE ASSEMBLY STRAIGHT OUT. GOOD LUCK.

peel back lining behind the assembly in trunk.you will see two little black square anchors and they have wings on eachside that need to be sqeezed this releases the pegs then slide the assembly slightly outward as these pegs on a little track then it should just pull off. be careful not to break these, although it is not the end of the world if u do as you can still rig it up somehow to keep the assembly in place once you have put the assembly back

Pull back the trunk's liner. There will be about 5 large plastic wing nuts. Remove these, and pull the tail light lens assembly away from the car. The socekets will then be accessible. For the front corner lights open the hood and remove the cowl piece over the headlights by removing about 5 twist lock fasteners. Next remove one 10mm nut from a stud coming up from the back side of the corner light assembly. Remove one Philips screw from the back of the outside of the assembly and remove the entire piece. you now have access to the socket that holds the bulb.

How do you replace the front turn signal bulb located on a 1986 Honda Accord LX?

open your hood and there should be a screw in the corner of the turn signal and it should slid right outHere is what I had to do on my 1988 Accord1. Open the retractable headlights.2. Remove the plastic shroud around the headlight: two screws in front and one on each side.3. Look to the outside of the headlight and you will see a single screw in a small plastic cover on the front inside edge of the signal light assembly. The headlight prevents you from getting at the screw straight-on. I broke it loose with an offset Phillips screwdriver, and then backed it out with a regular Phillips.4. Remove the plastic cover, and you will see two screws. Remove them.5. Now you can pull the turn signal assembly forward and out.6. To remove the bulb holders from the assembly, twist counterclockwise and pull out.7. Pull straight outward to remove the bulbs.To assemble, follow the steps in reverse. Note that there are two plastic rods on the back end of the turn signal assembly that you will insert into two holes in the channel of the fender.
