Kind of a foolish problem, but I went to take out the screws today to on the clear lenses over the plate bulbs on my 05 TB and the phillips heads are rotted away so bad that there is nothing to grab with the screwdriver. It all just rounded right out when I tried. These are the original screws and the original bulbs. It is sticker time so I need to replace the bulbs. I could get into drilling them out or something but I am wondering if someone here can tell me if I can replace the bulbs by taking off the inside cover on the hatch? I have never had that panel off so I don't know what it looks like from that side. If the sockets are accessible, will be the bulbs be able to be removed from the sockets on that side with the lenses still screwed into place from the outside? This is a case where a small item has the makings of turning into a big headache. Thanks for all replies.
