Default Rear taillight replacement

Dumb question, cant get the bulb out of the socket to replace didnt want to force it and break it so the dealer gets more $$$.....seems to be two little plastic pieces that should either snap back to release the bulb, but they dont seem too pliable...any help is appreciated.

You may have to use a flat screwdriver and gently pry one of the bracket arms holding it in while pulling the bulb out. They are supposed to come out just by pulling on the bulb but sometimes they require a little coaxing.
