Hi Bro...
To do so, yu need to remove the carpeting cover of the boot lid.
That's the tough part cos that pc is stuck on with dbl-sided tape!!
Juz kenot understand why Proton did so that way... doh.gif  rclxub.gif

Once that is removed, yu can then loosen & remove the licence plate outer lamp cover to gain access to the actual licence plate lamps.
After that, it's juz a matter of unplugging old filament bulbs & replacing with LEDs.

Good Luck, Bro!! notworthy.gif
How to remove the wire look-alike pin that holds the carpeting cover? I squeeze, adjust here and there also cannot take it out.

coz FLX CVT the gar lever is super duper hard to shift especially when it is still new, hence, "sticky lever" occurs. Sometimes we feel that we have shifted to the gear we wanted but actually it lands in between. doh.gif

Like I want to shift from D to N, the slight push sometimes makes the lever indicator (red dot) only shown half in the gear indicator but on the car dashboard it is still showing D. Release brake that time car go roll forward doh.gif

Weak battery still got power to power the radio and aircon blower. Cranking the engine requires a lot more power than just powering accessories.

What's the age of our battery? Over 1 year? If yes, warranty for battery over already.

Why not try tearing off the top label and unscrew the plastic screw for hole where u can top up battery water. If yours is maintenance free, do press the top label to feel for the plastic screws before you peel the label.

Then check whether your battery is low on battery water. If yes, top up with battery water or distilled water. Do not use tap water or over-filled. Screw back the plastic screws. Start your engine and drive around for a while. This allows the alternator to recharge back the battery.

I have such similar case before and it pisses me off with so called maintenance battery with plastic screws.

Btw, do this at your own risk. I'm just sharing my experience nia...

In my ole Saga 3AT 1.5I Auto, it was more of not engaging P properly....
Me cld not start car then...turning the key in ignition start has no effect at all!
Not even a click!

On pushing the gear selector lever to R and back into P worked each time it happened!
So must be some electrical contact switch in play IINM.
Nvr bothered 2find out why cos it worked ok most of the time. rolleyes.gif
