I actually did the same thing. The best way to go is go down to your local pepboys or any kind of auto place i know that sounds a little cheesy but they have these condom sort of things that go over the light bulb and they have red, blue I changed my rears to red and it looks great. It is really hard to find the actual red bulb so this is the best alternative and itll cost you 5 bucks

It really is as simple as Shai says. Just remove the felt doors in the left and right side by the trunk and you'll find the clip. Remove the power/control cable, then unclip the plastic piece that holds the entire bulb assembly. It'll slide right out.
