2013 RS front turn signal bulb replacement

[dickgi]

I am trying to remove the cover on my front rear view mirror to change the turn signal bulb. It is not a LED like the RT models. I do have a service manual and it just says take the entire mirror off. Seems like this is a lot of extra work just to replace a bulb. Any ideas on how to do this?

Looks like 1 screw to get at the bulb to me. Unless I am missing something.

Yes, I took the screw out but am having difficulty getting the front lens out/off (part 189). I did not want to pry it out unless that is the only way.

It does not show a gasket but I think there is one. The lens may just be stuck to the gasket. Pry on the screw end of the lens. Not too hard. Just give it some time for it to peel away.

That worked. Thanks.
