If they're like the 05-07s there should just be a phillips head screw holding the lens covers on.. unscrew, take off.
The bulb is a 192 I believe... I replaced all mine with LEDs.

To be honest, I never even got up there and looked...figured it took some tool I didn't have. Do they make these LED's that fit into the same factory socket?

The cablights have just one phillips screw that holds each lens on.
I just switched my bulbs to LED and used the WLED-AHP6 from
High Power SMD WLED Car Bulb specs
They work great!!!

Sometimes the bulbs just rattle loose too. Open it up and check before you go buy a bulb.

The last bulb on the passenger side is a standard bulb,
All the others are the LED bulbs,
The 2 lenses on the passenger side are the stock amber ones and the other 3 are the Recon smoked lenses so you can see the difference.
These LEDs are the same brightness as the stock bulbs but they put out a cleaner looking light color and they won't burn out.
