Unlike household bulbs, car bulbs use a bayonet fitting. Replacing the bulbs does not require any special skills.

Disconnect the wires supplying electricity to the bulb. For this operation, it may be preferable to use a screwdriver to pull out the connection.

Once done, reach in and pull the bulb from its position. After replacing the blown or non-functioning bulbs, simply reverse the procedure to install the new ones.
