Default LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS!!!!!

Hi guys,

Ok, I want to replace my license plate lights with LED's. I know that you have to open the hatch, pop off the two square covers, unplug the wires from the sockets. Now do the sockets twist out? I DO NOT want to break them and I've tried twisting them and they just feel like they're not twist out's. Some help here please????

Thanks a ton!!

They only come out when, and only when, you before you actually attempt it.

lolz, he's trying to say to use the search button because it's been covered before in a few license plate bulb threads. Don't worry, we will help ya out tho...I took a pair of pliers and carefully twisted them to the left I think it is and they will come out.
