Default 96GT third brake light half burnt out, help?

Right now only half the light works, looked at it and am having trouble how the bulb comes out, does it even come out, or is it one entire piece you have to replace? Cause I also cant find any info on what bulbs it would take if I can take it out. I'm a little dumb haha so....thanks in advance.

Not sure on the SN95,but if the brake light is on the trunk lid ya gotta get under the trunk lid. The bulb socket will turn 1/4 turn counterclockwise, then pull out of the housing. The bulb will be attached to the socket. Just pull it out, go to a parts store match it up and reverse the process.
