The plastic piece comes off from the bottom with a screw driver. Just push upward and it will pop right off. Take the bulb and twist it. I can't remember if its to the left or the right ... but it will turn. I remember one of my bulbs came right off and one of the other lights was a little harder to take off. Just take your time and be careful !
Good Luck

The courtesy light in the door? If so, they are 194 wedge bulbs. Once you get the lens off, the bulb just pulls straight out (don't twist, not a screw in type bulb). If it's the first time the bulbs been removed, it might be in there kind of tight, but you won't damage anything by giving it a good pull. I've changed mine a few times, running LEDs there now.

I swear I remember them being in a little housing that turned ... maybe im wrong.
Either way they aren't to hard to replace. It took me like 3 minutes to do both sides.
