I can't figure out how to get the current light cover off to access the bulb and sliding it does nothing.
I have told you how it is done, my article on putting in new lights shows the new light which is similar to the one you want out.
I told you how it was done and it was wrong. Oops!
I have studied the one I took out and found that if you pick the correct end you just pry it out from under the lip at the end.
The end you pry from is the one where you can not see the terminal at the end of the bulb. In the photo you pry from the right hand side.







The bulb is 42 mm long, tip to tip. Identified as F 42.
Mine is a Phillips 12866 12V 10W K 25673
