If I remember correctly you have to remove the back cover to access that bulb and it's kind of a pain in the ass to do. There's a certain trick to it, you're supposed to push in one spot while pulling in the other....the problem is, you could break a clip if you're not careful and then you're SOL. I couldn't do it without it feeling like something was about to break so I gave up.
It's one of those things that once you get it once it'll probably be incredibly easy and quick to do any other time, but I don't want to use my mirrors as the guinea pig
