    Pull the fender.

    Sorry I just couldn’t resist.

    If this is the Tahoe, I’m assuming it is because you are asking us. But we all know what you do when you assume.

    Unless there are screws on the marker light itself you will have to get at it from behind. Anything that is in the way move out of the way.

    I know we have a few Tahoe owners on here that may be more familiar with this than I. be patient some are not on as often as others.

    Believe me I know your pain with the weather. It’s been down in the 20’s here lately.

    open hood

    remove the two pins holding the main headlight

    remove the main headlight no need to disconect battery
    set the headlight to the side
    reach down and look for a release tab at the end of the lense squeeze it
    the lense will pop out at yah you may have to tug it a little

    the bulb here in the US is a 143 could be different up there

    un plug the bulb and replace

    put the lense back in the same way as removed
    then put the main headlight back in

    warm up engine to keep hands warm

    shouldnt take more than 5 minutes tops
