License Plate Bulb Replacement

[buskirk]

Can you please tell me how to replace a license plate buld on a 2005 Aveo Sedan?

Remove the 2 Philips head screws from the light cover, pull it down. Twist the light connector out of the cover. Remove bulb, replace with 5 watt bulb (2825 in Sylvania line), or 194 led. Reassemble in reverse order. Don't over tighten screws, or the cover may crack.

and smile! My mechanic offered to do it for me for $28.00 ($3.00 for the bulb and .3hr shop time) I didn't have the work "done."

BTW, on the 2008, the wiring harness is very short, with barely 1/2" of slack.
