LED bulbs

Im currently in the process of switching out all of my interior bulbs out with white sylvania led bulbs, the 2825/194 bulbs. I've got the interior done and the license plate bulb done. I picked up some amber ones for the side markers. I've searched and haven't found anything on how to remove the s2 sidemarkers. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't have a lot of spare time being in the army. Thank you

you cannot change the bulbs in the sidemarkers. They are a sealed unit.

That's retarded! So when the bulb burns out owners have to buy a whole new side marker

5105A - FRONT COMBINATION LAMPS. Fits: Mazda | Jim Ellis Mazda

When you take out the side marker, there are a few screws in the back, once you remove the screws the "lamp" will come out, that piece (has the bulb enclosed) gets replaced.

There's nothing that can't be disassembled. The question is whether you have good enough skill and tools to do it without breaking anything.
