I've seen this already but it doesn't show how to take off the lenses! NO TOOLS NEEDED?!! Yea, I don't see how. This is why I pay to have stuff done to my cars! I guess I quit my mechanics classes too early lol

Yep, there is no tool required to remove the license light assembly. Squeeze on the tab here and then you should be able to pull the light assembly out.

Squeeze on the tab here and pull it out, the cover will come off, and expose the bulb, pull the bulb out of the socket and replace the bulb, test it while its apart to make sure the bulb works, if it doesn't work pull the bulb out and rotate it once i think it maybe polarity sensitive.
