I own a 94 Legacy (90k mi.). Found out that my right rear blinker is out. I intend to go to Autozone to purchase a new bulb and install it myself. I opened the trunk and there's a panel inside that has a cover that pops off. I did so, there are a bunch of wires on a board there, but I don't want to start trying things at random.
This should be something pretty simple to do I'd think, and I'd hate to have to ask a shop to do it. Does anyone have a walkthrough on how I can do this myself?
Thanks,
Steve

They're 1/4 turn plastic holders for the bulbs. You'll have to look at which one corresponds to the part of the taillight that's the blinker, turn it, pull it out, push down and turn the bulb to remove, reinstal in the reverse. You may want to bring the old one into the store to match it to the new one. Note the pins on the side that lock the bulb into the holder (some are symmetrical, others offset), the number of contact pins on the bottom, and number of filaments (should only have one).
