I take it you are talking about the ones that are next to the release handle for the hatch? If they are the same on the GD as the GE then there should be two little clips on the edges. It's easier to see if you open the hatch and hold it at an angle. I used a small electrical screwdriver to do it. Once that's done just pull the connector out the back, careful not to snap the little grabber thing off and you can replace the bulb. Putting it back in is the same just in reverse and much easier to do might I add.

1.Push the license plate light to the side to release
the retaining spring, and pull out the license plate
light.
NOTE: Be careful not to damage the tailgate.
2. Disconnect the 2P connector from the light.
3. Separate the license plate light lens and the
housing , then remove the bulb .
4. Install the license plate light in the reverse order of
