How to change license plate bulbs?

Hi guys,


Anyone know how to change the license plate bulbs? It looks like the best way to do so is to remove the trunk lining inside and access from the back. However I noticed the trim plugs on the W205s are different from W204s. Doesn't seem like you can pop them out with a flat head screw driver like before. Anyone know if there's a special tool to do that?

Yes they are. But I don't like the color temperature. They are a little too yellowish which makes them look like regular bulbs. I prefer something closer to the color of the LED lights in the headlights.
