How do change the front parking light bulb?
 
I can't get the light out from the back. I also can't loosen the two screws they keep spinning. Do you take off the lens? Also there is something floating around in my headlight. I think I need a new one. They aren't available at the regular auto part stores are they?

The front lenses should just unscrew a quarter turn or so.
Should be a bayonet bulb so you might have to push to 'unscrew' the bulb.
You can check with the Kirkham bros about the headlight source or contact Cobra Restorers. Others may chime in on what model headlights they like best.

Turn the len counter-wise, lens should come off change bulb and install lens in place and then rotating clocwise

So you grab the orange lens and turn it? The blinker works but the parking light is out. I figured it was the bulb.

There are two types of front lenses. The "twist off" and the type that has two little screws. If you have the two little screw version, then you have to remove the two little screws, you can't just twist it off hard (well, I guess you could, but you're going to bust it). You need to finesse those two little screws out.

EDIT -- here's a shot of my twist off lights. If yours don't look exactly like this, don't twist them off.
