Default how do I change a blown front parker light globe

On the 09 JK's how do you change the Front park globe?
The bloody hand book does not have any instructions?

I have found a USA 08 hand book and it says you have to remove the front grill.
Since I have owned cars (almost 30 years), I have NEVER had one that the only way to change the globe is to remove the front grill.

Maybe this is a jeep thing?

What's even more stupid is if you have a aftermarket bar on the front you may have to take that off too to get the grill off, or you can bend it

I had that problem with my old GQ grill, when I did get it out the offending part of the grill behind the bullbar cecieved a trim with the angle grinder cut off wheel, never had a problem after that

The grill comes out from behind the Mopar steel bar with no problems, a bit of suprise, probably more luck than design

Stupid Storm Surfers had to watch the whole popup before the Submit Reply Button came up ......GRrrrr...

The ARB bar looks a lot stronger than the Mopar bar.
Still a very stupid design where you have to remove the front grill to change a light globe.

I would be most surprised if ARB manufactured a bull bar that you need to remove before you can change the light globe.

One way to change the JK parking light globe is to trade the JK in on a good TJ
