Stuck bulbs?
My 67 L79 backup bulbs are stuck. One depresses in, the other not so much. I assume the tail lights will be the same. Should I spray some WD40 to the base of the bulb and let it sit a while and try again?

I break the bulb - (nothing better than driving a glass bulb thru your thumb) ( ask me how I know...)
Then use a needle nose to push down and turn

I wouldn't use WD-40. PB Blaster or something that will dissolve corrosion maybe. Either way don't try to push and turn with your thumb and finger. Something the glass won't cut through would be better.
