You need to remove the trim on the inside (the beige'y coloured one around the rear window), it is just clipped in so give it a yank (carefully so you dont break it). Then there are 3 screws. Undo them then it just comes off. You will only be able to remove it a few inches, until you unplug the connector.

Easy as chips :P

I'm not sure they are bulbs...I always thought they were LEDs. Don't quote me on that though...
