Usually Dodge vehicles have two plastic "pins" that get pulled out on the side of the lens, then the assembly can be removed and the bulb socket twists and pulls off.

yes, this was very helpful. might also note when you slide the lens to the left it may seem somewhat hard, because there are two (2) slide guides on the inside right side.
