OK.

Push in on the wire clip, then bend it sideways to get out from under the hook thingy.

I hope this helps!

See? HELPFUL!

Well I just walked into the house after spending 1-1 1/2 hours changing the drivers side light bulb. Yea I made a production out of it. The drivers side cover was hard to get to so I removed the thing(?) blocking the rubber cover. I then took the rubber cover off and at the bottom portion of the bulb is a wire thar acts as a spring to hold the bulb in place. The lower side slides in place. The other end the prongs go into their repective holes and are squeezed to remove them.

Here is where it started to get interesting. I could not get the top prongs into their respective holes. So I started reoving thins. First the pump thing. That did not help. So I decided to take out the entire light.

Reove the grill reomove the top allan screw holding the bumper. Popping out the side marker light. Turning the wheel to get int the opening under the lights. Removing the 2 screws under the headlights. Removing the top 2 screws.

What a PIta.

Success.
