did the front ones they seemed to come out easily with a small tap on the back of the socket
have to look at some rears to see if they are similar

Got it now just had to grab with some vise grips and rock it. Wiggle and twist. It finally came out

Bobby b, you can get new bulb sockets with the wires for those.
While you have them out media blast them and spray the reflectors a bright aluminum before you put the new bulb sockets in. really makes it reflect very bright. TR
