Im guessing you mean they wont come out of the clock ? Just give the rubber bit a good pull and it should pop out. Just dont pull by the wire. The bulb should then come out of the holder pretty easily.

Take it down to halfords and you should be able to get one the same :)

Yeah i had to replace mine and it came out easily, was only bout 60p for a new bulb :D
If it's broke spray it with WD40, if it's still broke spray it again and leave it over night, if it's still broke, bin it.

Dont pull by the wires, youll only pull them out the holder then youll have no light at all.

What might be worth doing it poking a small screwdriver in and try prising it out.

U shud just be able to grab the little rubber and pull it out with very little effort, failing that try robs approach or use a small pair of pliers (very carefully) to give u abit more grip on the back end of the bulb.
