    Front turn signal LED replacment question

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello Audizine members, today I attempted to swap in front LEDs for my front turn signals, and after getting the bulb actually out of the housing, I got stuck. As you can see in the pics below, it is just not a simple plug n play swap, what am I missing?? I have searched and have found many people to have done this mod, but no great detail as to the how the process goes. Car in question is a B8 2012 S4. Thanks in advance!
