When you open the tail gate there should be either the

Philips (star) screws of two black plugs. To remove the

black plastic plug use a pair of pliers grip it firmly and

give them a pull (do not twist) they are just a push pin.

The lens will then basic just come off. The socket will

twist counter clockwise, the bulb (part#3057) will just

pull out. Then the reverse to re install. HTH!

Good luck.

Ok, I'm not sure if I can be any help, but I'll try..... Most lens are complete %26quot;housing%26quot; units that the bulbs insert and twist into. The housings can usually be removed by loosening a couple of screws from the inside of the van. (around the housing area).

Sorry I couldn't be more help.
Raise the liftgate and there should two screws holding the lamp housings to the van, (this is the industry standard). Pull the housing off and twist off the bulb sockets. The bulbs are a bayonet design so they should pull out and push in. Use a silicone grease on the contacts to prevent corrosion. Ease the locating tabs on the housings with the body and install with the screws. Hope this helps.
