To replace the bulbs, you have to pull out the sockets/grommets - they are just pressed in place.
They can be a bear - mine were incredibly difficult to remove.

When you put them back in you might want to smear a little silicone grease on them so next time they will come out easier (plus they will go back in easier). Ed
