take off plate remove inboard lamp assy if you need to change outboard lite and reach in through inboard hole its a good idea to replace them all with long life bulbs and use silicone grease in sockets not hard to do but a pia

I did my outboards by reaching up next to the muffler. It's really tight, but possible. You have to twist the bulb housing about 1/4 turn to get it out of the socket.

its hard to do and you need skinny long arms. for the inside lights go through the liciens plate area, for the outter ones go up from under the car.
