This varies from car to car.
However, normally there are two screws holding the holder/lens cover on.
Take them out and with a little screwdriver or something just ease the holder out and then you should be able to twist and pull out the bulb holder.
After that, You twist and pull out the bulb.
I hope this helps, SJT.(sebbyfire)
Open your trunk the two inner bulbs are for your license plate twist and should pop right out
push up and turn on the housing
You need to remove the liner on the trunk lid. That will give you access to the license plate lights housing. Remove the sockets by twisting 1/4 turn and replace bulbs. Size for bulbs are 2825
The clear covers for the license plate light bulbs have small arrows pointing in one direction. Simply push the cover to the direction of the arrows and the covers will slide off allowing for the old light bulbs to be replaced.
If you can not remove fasteners on outside, you may need to cut a section out of the inside of trunk to get your hand by the bulbs.
OPEN THE TRUNK LID. JUST INSIDE THE LID BEHIND THE LICENSE BULB CASE ARE 2 PHILIP HEAD SCREWS THAT REMOVE THE BACKING PLATE. ONCE YOU REMOVE IT YOU CAN REPLACE BOTH LITTLE BULBS. THEN PUT THE PLATE AND SCREWS BACK IN YOUR READY TO GO.....
Remove the screws that hold the covers in place. Replace bulbs!
There are two (2) lights directly above the license plate. Each light has two (2) screws. Remove these screws and the covers. Lights pop out with little effort. Replace bad bulbs with size 194 lights. These are approx $2 at walmart or an auto parts store. Once bulbs are replaced, reattach covers with the screws and you should be good to go.
On top of the license plate is a clear plastic lens with 2 screws in it. Take it off. Then a bulb slides into the holder, then replace the lens. There are 2 bulbs. One on each side.
in the rear facia, under the trunk lid there is 9 bolts holding the facia on. You must remove the nuts and pull the facia out and right above the license is the two bulbs 194. replace the bulbs and put the facia back on and you are on your way.
Check bulbs
They are located inside the trunk lid, underneath the felt lining. You need to unsnap and pull back the felt lining to access the bulbs for the license plate light.
