I can get my hand through the brake duct, however, I can't figure out how to turn or whatever to release the bulb socket from the houson. Anyone have a pic of the diagram or any other suggestions? Thanks for ur time

The access / close out panel is from the bottom of the fascia in front of the wheel. Should be 3 or 4 screws.

On the outer edge of the socket that the bulb fits into, there is a push type lock. Just push it in and twist the socket
