mkmatt Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Probably simple, how do you change the license plate bulb on the SS? It looks tough to get to the socket from the inside of the bumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jond983 Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 honestly that's prob. the easiest bulb you can change on your truck. i changed mine like a yr ago...just twist and it pops right out...i can get to mine like it's nothing and my truck is no different than yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooter3 Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 The only way I have been able to do it is by crawling under the truck and popping the light housing off the bumper. I had to use a screwdriver to pop the housing off. Once it is off you only need to twist the bulb out and put the new one in. Push the housing back into the bumper. You will hear it snap back into place. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that helps. this is the best way but to make that even easier just put your pointer finger on the flat side closest to the license plate. press it away from the plate and then pull out towards you. takes a little bit of pressure but comes off easily. I have done it like 10 times tryin to find the right LEDs that didn't look rice. (no luck went back to factory halogens lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rausche Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 No crawling under the truck is necessary. Those housings will pop right off with a little bit of love, and then it's cake to change the bulb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkmatt Posted September 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Thanks to all, I got it changed, still hard to get a screwdriver in there to pop it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
