Clearance lights??

I noticed that two of my clearance lights had some water in them... Wanted to take them apart to clear them out and possibly reseal but can't figure out how to open them... .? Do the lenses screw on to each other ?? Snap on? Any help would be appreciated...

Thank you

These kinds of questions need you to identify your rig's model and the year of the model. Different years and models are built differently at the plant and then someone with the same RV can better assist you.

No screws = pop off with a flat screwdriver.

Semi's have those type of lenses. It's just a tight fit.

I had same cracks and crazes in my 5 front Amber lights with no evidence of impact damage. Dealer replaced them under warranty.

If the lens won't budge. You may want to drill a small drain hole.

When you get a chance...look at the lens for numbers. Write them down(take a pic...that's my new note pad) an Google the numbers. The SAE number is useless, but the other numbers should lead you to a solution. If they are in a rubber boot then they are prolly supposed to be sealed. New light assym.
