okay. . what you need to do is get a pair of needle nose pliers and twist the caps that hold the bulbs. . If you look in the owners manual it shows you which direction to twist .. Theyre pretty strong and wont break. but be careful. . I also found it easier to remove the entire black plastic attached to the hatch because i have big hands and couldnt fit them in the little cover.

i just replaced mine last nite with leds. looks great. take the pliers and twist the plastic piece to the left to remove the cap. then just wiggle the bulb left n right till it comes out mine came out really easy.

If you plan on changing the front parking light 194's, they're a pain in the ___ as well.
