RF corner light replacement?

Greetings all. My 97 SVX LSi got a little frisky with the rear end of a 2007 Maxima. 5 mph. The result- the whole bumper and side of the Maxima was totally creamed, and I cracked my RF corner light. They sure don't build them better than our tanks.

Of course I searched before asking, so can anyone tell me how to replace this light, or provide a link? I would assume that it's not too complicated by just looking, but I think I know better. Any pitfalls or quick hints? TIA all.

This light can be easily replaced. If you're in Monmouth County, you're less than 45 mins. from our shop. We have the corner light you need, and I can definitely put it on for you. One Phillips head screw holds the tab, and then the light slides out towards the front of the car.

Hi Mike. As you were responding, I was on your site looking at your location- as I also have no A/C. More argh! Once I figure out my schedule I should make an appointment for you guys to check her out. I also have "that" rattle underneath too on bumps. Thanks!

PS- How much is that corner light? Used hopefully, as I wouldn't want anything new to stick out so much.

Not to jack your thread, but what part of Monmouth County are you in? I used to live in Howell.
