Default Lights

I pulled the stock headlight bulbs out (which the driver side is a pain in the rear with a V2) and replaced them with PIAA Ultra White bulbs. Everything is great, now I ordered the license plate lights (or which I thought were the right lights) because I like how the Lexus IS350 look with the Hyperwhite license plate lights in the rear. The problem is how in the world do you get the bulbs out??? I practically took the whole trunk lid apart and where you have to pop the bulb holders out, they wont come out!!! If anyone has done this let me know what exactly I am doing wrong!

Just put the new bulbs in, it is amazing something like that right in front of your face can give you the biggest headaches. I was trying to take the whole assembly out but I am glad that it was just "pinch" the silver part and they came right out. It gave me that Lexus "HID" look I was sure looking for. THANKS FOR THE HELP......

Sorry to bring this back to life, what bulb size did you use and can you recommend the brand or w/e where you got your wonderful HID look? Thanks
