Depending on the price it would be a good idea yeah 
Why did I do it?
Where I work the car park is really dark and the detail of all lights coming on at once when I unlock the car from a distance was very beneficial, plus I have a four door and occasionally have people in the back, so it is used sometimes...
To take it out you have to give it a good pull, if you look at the pick below it will show where the brackets are, mine had 4 brackets, 2 you can see now and the other 2 are opposite. For this I did not use any tools, just a set of hands....
Then unplug the whole thing, and this is what you are left with:
This is how the back of the unit looks:
Now the easiest way to get to the bulbs is to take out the plastic covers, again 4 brackets, 2 on each side. To get to the brackets I used my house key, just go carefully a little bit on each bracket and you should be ok. Here is a pick with the plastic half way out, note where the brackets are:
The this is the standard bulb:
I used Philips LEDs:
Not a great final pic, looks much better if they lights were off and I was using a proper camera, pics where taken with my phone.
Just want a rough idea yano?
