Step 5: Twist the dead bulb counter clockwise to unlock it from the holder.

Is incorrect for at least the Canadian model of the Kia Optima. The brake light bulb on the drivers side needs to be pushed in and rotated ~30 degrees counter clockwise to be taken out of the grey bulb holder, I suspect the passenger side is the same.

Secondly for Canada, at least at Canadian Tire the bulb to buy is Sylvania LongLife bulb “2357”

I’m not in Canada so I don’t know the difference between Canadian and American but I had to push the bulb in and turn counter-clockwise to remove. But I did purchase both the Sylvania Longlife bulbs 1157A and 2357 but used 1157a.
