Super novice here but with a headlight out and the dealer telling me it was a bad ballast (and tried to charge me 2k BTW) I ordered one on Amazon and managed to replace it with a fresh bulb myself.
Still not working so I took the battery out and am trying to check the fuses for a blown fuse. Problem is - I can't figure for the life of me how to get the cover off this! Can anyone help? I can't find anything on YouTube either. Thank you!

Reason: spelling!
Well I managed to get it out finally and replaced the fuses and everything is a go! The only thing not working now are a couple of the orange 'missile' looking lights. Any idea what those are or how to fix? Even worth bothering with? thanks!
Thank you Cleric! Mighty kind of you! Here's a pic of the missile haha. The top small (orange bulb but you can't tell from pic) doesn't work on one side. Bulb? Another fuse perhaps?

The larger one on the bottom with the fancy diffuser is your integrated fog lamp, make sure you are turning the correct switch to operate it. The orange one I THINK is your turn direction indicator, not 100% sure, my vehicle has a different lamp assembly.
I have a problem with my Parking Lamp. One side doesn't light up.
Is it a fuse or bulb? I just prefer to get some real life experience from the forum. Thanks
Swap the working bulb from it's side to the side that doesn't light up. If it works it's just a bulb out (most likely issue) and if it doesn't it's probably a blown fuse. Since all the other lights work you don't have a bad ballast.
Never mind I took care of it. Removed battery from its tray, press two tabs behind box and lifted fuse box,
flip the box so that bottom of box is towards passenger side panel. cut off two locking tabs and was able
to remove the cover. removed fuse and replaced battery. Have to remove battery again to replace fuse
and then replaced battery. What a bad design.
