Dammit.... I was afraid of that.... They don't appear to have any heads left on them.... How do you drill something out? I've heard the term used before but never had it explained....
Back Up Light Out....
How do you go about changing a burnt out back up light on my '89 Fleetwood Brougham? I can't seem to find a place to access the bulb and my FSM doesn't say how to do it......

Well ****....Get a metal drill bit that is slightly smaller than the screw threads and drill at the head and hope it pops out. Once you get the head off you should be able to pull the bezel off freeing the lens. Don't push too hard with the drill, the tab it screws into is plastic with one of those threaded clips on it. I attached a pic of it out so you can see what you're working with.
Can I assume that the thread of those screws are the same size as the ones that hold the taillight bezels on? They too thread into those little clips....
My idea was to put a dab of hot glue in there to keep moisture out and prevent the future screws from rotting. I dunno I'm open to suggestions....
