flathead screwdriver with a cloth so you dont scratch..

just pry it off, its easy.

Take note of the proper bulbs and replace.

just pop the cover back on

i prefer using 1/2in or 1in flexible plastic putty knives (ala hardware store special) since they tend to not damage the finish nearly as much.

I did what u said j stuff, which was correct, but i don't know if it is my car there's no exact compartment 4 a bulb. I don't know if the compartment was broken or taken out, but there's no electricity tab for a bulb. Very confusing. My last resort is asking the dealership. Appreciate the responses (j stuff and puredrifter).
