Default Side marker light

i took my car to get detailed and i guess the guy who was working on my car broke the clip that holds the light in. The only thing holding the light is the wire that it is connected to. How do i fix this? Is it an easy fix?

Pretty easy, don't drop the wire when you are switching from the bad light to the good one. Otherwist you have to fish the wire out but I did that too and it was not too hard...

That is a common problem. The retainers are plastic and very brittle. If the clip is broken, just plan on buying a new light. E bay has a set of two for about $25.00. Just be sure to get the Honda ones. Good luck.
On caution. When you disconnect the wire, tape it to the fender. If it falls in the hole you have a real PITA.
