rear side marker bulb replacement HELP

I need to replace a bulb in the rear side marker, but I can't get it out. I'm doing everything according to the manual, but obviously doing something wrong cause it's not coming off. What's the catch? Please help before I break it.
Thanks.

Hmmmm, Ive changed these bulbs a few times. It should not be difficult. From what I remember, You have to twist the part that holds the bulb and then just pull the bulb out. GOOD LUCK !

Small flat blade screwdriver will work wrapped in a small cloth, you have to get in behind the lense deep and pop towards the rear of the car. It will come out. Its hard to do, take your time and you'll be fine.
