Replacing the LS door courtesy light

[rch105]

Good Morning, All.
Can anyone suggest the procedure to replace the driver's door courtesy lightbulb in my '87? Do I have to pull the door panel off?
Thanks,
Rick

Can anyone help? I don't want to break any plastic parts.

If no one has answered you yet, no the door panel doesn't have to come off. The black plastic control trim does, tho. If you've never taken this off before, the lock slides will give you the most trouble. They pop straight off with a small implement of destruction like a screw driver. After that is off and the trim is pulled out, the bulb holder can be taken off the trim. One end of the push on/off lens can be popped (love that word) off and there she be. You'll be able to see what needs to be done without any breakage. Just take it nice and easy as with everything else on the car.
