This one sounds familiar.....on my car I had trouble putting the bulbs in. I found that the bulbs only go in one way, and that the wiring on one bulb pointed straight down, while the wiring on the other bulb pointed in completely different direction. This was only discovered after I couldn't get the second bulb to line up like the first one. Very irritating.

Suggestions....make sure that your replacement bulbe are the same type as the ones you took out.....stick your head down there and look at the socket to see if you have the tabs lined up and that you are trying to install the bulb properly.
