Rear tail light side markers

One of my rear side markers went out last night, so I refer to my handy owner's manual only to see that it says "too hard for stoopid owner, take to authorized dealer" I didn't see a DIY when I searched the forums all I was able to do figure out is that they are LED style lights.

Does any one know exactly what kind of LEDs they take and how to replace them? The online service manual seems to be down at the moment and I really don't want to try it blind.

wow it actually went out? there's no easy way to take the taillights apart to replace them. tell the dealer, probably need a new taillight.

Nope.....he ain't kidding. I don't think there is a real good way(if any) to get to them.

Oh wow. Mine has been out for a few weeks. I figured I would be able to pop them out easy when I got to changing my rears to LED. This news sucks!!!
