    Open the hatch. Look at the plastic that covers the inside back of the hatch. There are 2 rectangular plastic doors in the middle left and right. Use a knife and pry the top part of the door. Remove the door. You will see the lamp socket. Turn the socket counterclockwise about 1/8 of a turn to release. Pull the socket+bulb out. Replace the bulb. Assemble in reverse order.
