Replace right side turn signal bulb V70 2002

Hey all, this is embarassing but its not the first time I'm struggling
with a bulb on the darn V70, last time I had to get a mechanic to do
it

Does anyone know how to replace the right side turn signal bulb? the
book says to just turn counterclockwise but the socket is not moving
and it doesnt look like the drawing in the manual.... There is a plug
there and I can get the plug out but the grayish fitting doesnt budge.

any help be greatly appreciated!

IIRC, it needs a good stiff turn, counter-clockwise to remove it.

 

Hey EMC, ok I got the bulb out but when I put the new bulb in it
accidentally fell into the light itself ( I have no luck with bulbs
on this car....

is there a way to open the headlight and get to the bulb inside the
blinker light? I see weather strip and all that around it, I'm also
wondering if there is a way to pull it out but opening it might be
easiest way to go?

thanks!
