As you know there are two, The Left lamp just give it a effort to push it laterally towards the rights and then pull it out, the same goes for the right lamp.
. Once the slide to the right is done It is bit tricky, then rest is history the bulb socket at the rear is just twist and turn. And you replace with the led lamp..so long.

The reverse light should have the panel door open from inside. There are two bolts holding the socket. Thats it, remove and replace the bulb.
