Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and the next time you need a part for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to service as well as replace your license plate light on this 1996 Chevy Tahoe. The items you'll need for this include a new license plate light from 1AAuto.com, a flat blade screwdriver, and a hammer.
To service your license plate light, you just go back from behind it, and the socket is right here. You just twist it counterclockwise and it pulls free. Then, you can pull the old bulb out and push your new bulb in, and it twists clockwise back in.
Now, to remove the entire assembly, just twist that socket back out, and you want to slide this clip up and out. Using a flat blade screwdriver and a hammer, you just want to hit that clip up and out. Once you've got it most of the way, you can just pull it out by hand.
Now, your license plate light will just pull right out. On the left is the old license plate light; on the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical, and they'll fit exactly the same. Push your new license plate light into place, slide that clip back down, twist your socket back in, and you're all set.
We hope this video helps you out. Brought to you by www.1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the Internet. Please feel free to call us toll-free, 888-844-3393. We're the company that's here for you on the Internet and in person.

Perfect replacement
Truck wouldnt pass state inspection because this lens was missing. The light and socket were working fine, but the bumper had to have this lens covering the bulb. This lens took about 2 minutes to install using the original bracket. (Make sure your bracket is in good shape because they are not included.) Perfect fit and it passed inspection! Yey!
