Do the same methods to replace the second bulb socket with another new LED bulb.
- Take a look if the new LED lights are functioning properly. Before you put back everything, check your recently mounted LED bulbs by turning on your car's lights. If they are not working properly, try to reverse them around 1st. See if there is any improvement. If still nothing happens, check the metal contacts. Try to spread them out a little bit. Next, put the bulbs again. This should do the trick. If they are ALRIGHT, use your screwdriver and use it to install back the plastic clips. Tighten them. And then, reposition the carpet cover over the trunk lid liner.
