There is spring steel retaining wire that holds the bulbs in place. the wire is hinged on one side, and on the other side is a hook that holds the wire in place. You need to pop the wire off of the hook and swing it on the hinge out of the way. Before doing this, you should remove the bulb connector.

I don't think I'm explaining the procedure very well, and it's aggravated by the fact you can't really see what your doing. It's a real PITA. If you have an small inspection mirror of any kind, it might help.

Hope this helps.
