Are you serious...

Read the f**king manual! Take out the bulb... take the bulb to autoone or the likes. Ask for a new bulb. Screw it in, and Tad daaaaa...

[danny_2132]

lol da cover wont screw out for sum reason jus keeps spiinning when i try and unscrew it.

[adu]

brahh .. meet up

lmfao

im actually goin george river road maccas now

hahah

[danny_2132]

lol cbf goin out rite now ive been driving all day so yer lol

wot globes do i need to get i think i might just pull da screws out with pliers or sumthingg.. or ne ov you have a better idea?

[An41]

what do mean you the cover keeps spinning?
theres like a square plastic cover you can just pull that off and then the bulb socket should just turn 90 degrees and its free to pull out

[danny_2132]

yer but i need the tail light which is the one next to it and u have to take the covering off and theres like 4 screws u gotta take out. and the screws dont screw out.

the square plastic cover is like for your signaling ones

and the screw keeps spinning not the cover

[An41]

i replaced my brake light through that square panel
EDIT:no sorry that was on my EG, i remeber what I did, you push in on the little circle on the trim screw then I popped it out and pulled the trim back enough to reach in and replace the bulb

[danny_2132]

serious? lol when i take dat little pannel off i can only see the yellow bulb

ill go check again later

but in the manual it says you have to removing the pannels at the bac to get the bulbs outt

[An41]

woops, i editted my post with the way i did it

[danny_2132]

lol ahk yer theres those popy things but theres also screws in it and the screws just wont come outt. :(

[An41]

are you trying to take the whole taillight out?or are you having trouble with the bulb socket

[danny_2132]

well there is a pannel covering the bulb socket and im having trouble geting the pannel off because the screws are stuffed and they dont screw out when i screw it, it just keeps spinning and nuthing happens

[An41]

lol you've totally lost me now, I didnt have to unscrew any other panel to get out the bulb socket except pull back the trim and reach in

[jeffreymui]

which cover are u talking abt tho?

[danny_2132]

well u open the boot and u look inside u see the 2 covers on each side which cover the signal bulbs. between that is a hatch which you have to remove to change the tail lights

im having trouble removing the screws which hold the hatch in place becasue the screws are stuffed.

have a look on page 186,187 on ur manualll

[Spoon SiRG]

Those are not screws. They are plastic clips. You have to push the center part in to pull the whole clip out,all 7 of them. If you have the child seat anchorage point you have to unscrew that as well. Only then you can remove the whole rear plastic trim,& then can you get to your blown tail light bulbs.

[danny_2132]

i tink i kknow wot a screw looks like... hlf are the plastic push in tings and da other hlf are screwss

[An41]

do you mean those hooks(anchors)?

[danny_2132]

see the top one? thats what it looks like but its a black one

i know cause 2 of them screwd out and 2 just keep spinning when i try to unscrew it and the rest of em are that clip thing i just push the thing in the middle

[An41]

i did not have to undo any screws like that, but this might sound stupid but have you loosened it then attempt to pull it out?

[jeffreymui]

try use something to pry it out....is it the black plastic screws? if it fked up...just pry it out and get new plastic plugs

[danny_2132]

yess its da plastic screewss :):):) yer i tink i might just pull it out and hopefully nothing breakss.

[adu]

[GSi_PSi]

get a flathead and pry it out.. had trouble with these @@$$% screws aswell.. but ive noticed if you dont apply much pressure and be gently they usually come out .
