Has anyone had any trouble removing the bulb sockets from the front side marker lens assembly on a 68 Charger? The rear red side marker sockets seemed to pull out of the lens assembly pretty easily. However, the front sockets seem to be stubborn. The socket will spin freely in the lens assembly, but just don't seem to want to come out. I tried to pull on it with as much force as possible without breaking it. Is there something special that needs to be done to get them out of there? Thanks

my guess, front being into a very hard enviroment due the wheels, could be simply stuck by rust, dust, mud, grease. Rears being into the trunk compartiment, will keep cleaner, so safer
