1) Unhook harness (pull)
2) Pull back on rubber dust boot
3) Push metal retainer clip down and I believe up to unhook it and swing it outwards
4) Remove bulb
5) Reverse

Yeah, they got that rubber cover around them. I just didn't want try pulling it and end up screwing something up since I just put them in.

Yeah I don't think it's readily available anywhere - took me awhile to figure that out my first time.
