   There's just a little lead that twists and pulls out of the back bud.

   Open the door? Do you mean the repeaters on the doors? If so, just push them forward a bit then twist it Iirc.

   Maybe I'm getting confused on what bulb I'm supposed to be replacing haha 501 sidelights bulbs, do they go next to the main beam in the front light casing?

   Have you got 501's or H1's I'm confused? Side lights are in the headlight main reflector next to the H4 bulb, the holder twists and comes out of casing.
