Actually, the manual is pretty much right on. Aside from someone doing it for you, it couldn't be much easier.

Start on the drivers side. It's easier to see the nuts. Two up front, and one toward the back.

Grab a flashlight and look around behind the marker light assembly.

Its very easy, once you have the headlight out there is only one

nut holding the blinker/parking light to the fender. Once the headlight is

out, look on the opposite side of the blinker bulb (where you just took

the headlight out) You will see one nut. Remove that nut and wiggle the

marker light to un-hinge it, because it clips to fender on the other end.

OK, this is kind of a mystery...some people are saying there are 3 nuts, some are saying there's only 1... :confused:
My 300a has 2 nuts, one above the other, right behind the headlight. It is not necessary to take the headlight out, although the nuts are a little fiddly to reach. The rear of the parking/cornering lamp assy is held in by a tab molded into the unit. Remove the 2 nuts, rotate the front of the assy straight out and forward and there you have it...
