Can't get to back breaklight or liscence plate bulb do i need to take my car into the dealership to get these bulbs replaced?

I just got a fix it ticket in california because one of my break lights was out.  When I took my Hyundia Accent to pep boys they couldn't easily replace the light.


Do I need to take my Hyundia Accent 07 into the dealership to have them replace the back breaklight?  I also need one of the liscence plate bulbs replaced as well.

Have any of you guys ever fought a fix it ticket?  I plan on fighting this in court.

No, you can replace both bulbs yourself if you have a wrench and a small screw driver.  From http://www.hmaservice.com/.  Looks like simple procedures for both bulbs.

Tail Light Fixture:

REPLACEMENT

1.Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.

2.Loose the nuts holding the rear combination lamp then disconnect the 6P connector then remove the rear combination lamp.



3.Installation is the reverse of removal.

License Light Fixture:

REPLACEMENT

1.Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.

2.Detach the license lamp lens (A) from the trunk lid panel with a flat-tip screwdriver.



3.Replace the bulb.

4.Installation is the reverse of removal.

No, in my state they write warning tickets for items like this.
