"Hi, I'm Mark Blocker on behalf of Expert Village. In this segment we're going to cover cleaning the light bulb assembly for the trunk light. Part of our automotive interior lighting systems. Once again to remove the bulb, just wrap around it with a cloth and gently pull it down with our fingers. Or you could use needle nose pliers. Whichever is easier for you. But you want to avoid contact, the bulb contacting your skin so you don't get any oil residue off your skin on to the bulb. To clean it, we're just going to use a moist portion of the towel from previously washing the lens. Then wipe the bulb down. Getting all the loose dirt and dust off. After the bulbs been cleaned, we just want to reassemble it by sticking the bulb right back in the socket again. After snapping the bulb in to the socket. Then we're going to replace the lens assembly. Please watch our next segment on replacing the cover assembly. The lens cover assembly for trunk light of our interior vehicle lighting systems."
