License plate lightbulb replacement
Does anyone know how to replace the rear license plate lightbulbs on a '01 C5 coupe? One of mine blew out and before I start unscrewing things I thought I'd ask if anyone else knows how to replace them.

Remove the trim ring around the plate. There are four little tabs that you push in on the sides of the frame to get it off. Then remove the plate and then you'll see the four screws to remove the whole assy. Not to hard eight screws altogether.

The bulbs are above the assembly and don't appear to be connected; do I need to remove the license plate assembly to replace the bulbs?
