Unhappy Changing lamps

Hi,
I'm really wondering. I also didn't found anything under "search".
Well, I tried to change the lamps on my Elise '08.
There are (corresponding to one side) two lower screws and one upper screw.
How I understood in the manual I must remove these and then I can remove the plastic panel to get access to the lamps cover.

But, my oroblem is that I can only remove the one upper screw and not the two lower. These, I turn, turn and turn and nothing happens. It's like "the nut behind also turns"????

Are I`m doing something wrong or what should I do?

Thanks a lot for your answer.

Grüße,
Constantin

Auf dieses Problem bin ich auch ein paar mal gestoßen. Du mußt gleichzeitig zurückziehen und nach links drehen.

Alles Gute aus den Vereinigten Staaten,
