Default 93 850 corner light assy replacement

Just picked up a 93 850 and both corner light assemblies are missing. I have the parts on order and while searching thisforum for instructions - found that there is some sort of spring that holds them in place as opposed to clips or screws etc. Can anyone give me a rundown on what is actually needed? I'm guessing the lamps I got on ebay won't come with the springs which are probably missing and why the original lamps fell out in the first place.

To install or remove you need a 6" or longer screwdriver and you reach down from inside the engine bay and engage a loop about the size of your finger and pull the spring out of a "V" groove.

The lamp has locating pins that will seat into holes to locate it and then the springs tension holds them in place.

P/n at IPD 114377 - turn signal retaining spring 850 $3.24

Trying to find a photo of the spring installed.

You should have bought the euro corners from FCP..
The ones for 93's are the only one they have left..
Dual bulb, nice look and a hell of a lot cheaper.

You are correct... I wish I had posted first. I only spent $50 so it was close but I might return them and go to FCP.

Thanks for the replies gents.
