Light replacement on C6
I purchased the stealth corner bulbs. and I am having a terrible time getting the stock lights out from behind the service flap in the inner fender. I know this sounds stupid, but does anybody have any tips on making this easier. Thanks in advance

Not sure exactly what you having problems with. On the front side markers, once you have the service cover removed, gently press on the retaining clips and they will just pop out. Or just leave the reflector in place and twist the bulb holder out and replace the bulb. Rears work the same way but easier to go in through the rear tail lights.
Does this help?

I did the same mod a while back...it was tough. I can't remember exactly, but there are some stupid retaining clips you have to get out of the way before you can twist off the bulb. I seem to remember the screwdriver helping some.
