You guy's serious?? You reach your hand down in that area twist and pull out the bulb harness the bulb comes with it. Its just like any other bulb just its in an awkward location

look in the manual i believe there should be a section that explains how to turn them back on. its one of those strange processes thats like turn car off do an handstand and do the national anthem backwards lol if im wrong and its not in there go to the dealer where u got the car they can reprogram ur key and lights. i found this out when my remote stopped working they said it had to be reprogrammed and when i got my car back the lights would not go on when i unlocked my car but they did when i locked it, before the reprogram they flashed when doing both. i actually prefer my setup know because when i unlock it at night only the lights inside slowly come on look fancy im gonna take a look at my car's manual and see where it explains how to do it urself

I've lost my manual, can you post the instructions to this? Thanks!

And also, the lights used to turn on any time the headlights were on and don't anymore. Were yours doing this as well?

Haha I am referring to the method he used to change the setting of the bulbs being on/off via his remote, if that's what he was referring to.
