This is what I do.
The sidemarker is like a slide in clip
The sidemarker would have to be push/slide gently,
to the direction of the front of the car and when uncliped
or lose enough to come out, I pull it out
then I take out the old bulb and replace it with the
new bulb of choice.
Hope this helps, remember this is what I do. So try at your own risk.

It's a very straight forward install, just push forward to depress the clip and pull it right out 
I'd also recommend our V2 Sidemarker Bulbs if you want a xenon white or amber LED replacement.
