Default Rear Side Marker Lights

Does one need a hammer to remove them to change the bulb or is there a trick.

Thanks ahead of time

HAMMER???? Be careful there. Don't think you will need one. Never changed mine but had a friend who did. Will find out and let you know.

It's really funny that you feel bad when a stupid light bulb burns out on your car. It's like your kid is waiting for surgery or something.
I want to take off work to fix it and make it right.
Perhaps a bit crazy me thinks.
Appreciate the quick responses. Will do tonight when I put her back in the barn.
