Ill poke around my work and see if we have a stripped screw extraction kit and some new replacement screws for the lights. I'd cut them out but I dont have new assemblies to replace with though

The light bulb is stuck or one of the screws? The light bulbs must be twisted a certain way to be removed. It is tough i know bc i wanted to pull out my .380 and shoot them out when i replaced my bulbs but finally figured it out.

Its the bulb, its stuck pretty good in the housing. I suspect the PO didn't know what they were doing when they changed the lights before and put them in wrong, in addition to stripping the screws.
