unplug the connector
remove light (probably held in by a wire that you depress then move)
install new light with out touching the glass part
re clip light
plug wire back in

This makes it sound simple. I guess I can't figure out how to get to the connector?

Hay dude, there's a big rubber grommet thing that covers the connector, I am unsure if you need to twist it or just pull it off, but under it is the clip/wire that holds the light bulb in place

ok, i took the rubber thing off. There was some wire plugged into something. I unplugged. Now I am on hold. The plug doesn't match the blub i bought. So I am not sure what the plug goes to. What do i do next?

In that cause you may have brought the wrong bulb, you could just pull out the original bulb and take it with you to the store so you can match them up

ok, then this is the question I should be asking:
How do I get the bulb out? That is what I am having problems with. If I can get that out, then I can get the one I bought in.

Thanks again guys.

Otherwise just take it to your nearest mechanic and ask them to show you

thanks guys. I took to a mechanic near my office and asked him how to do it. He showed me. Was a little bit more difficult that I thought, but its done and he did it for no charge at all.
