When removing my original incandescent wedge base bulbs, I had to use a pair of needle nose pliers, very gently. I cushioned the prongs of the pliers with a layer of duct tape. And plugging in the new LED bulbs took some effort, too.
Also, when you plug in the new bulbs, make sure that the contact wires on the sides of the wedge are slightly spread apart so that they can touch the sides of the socket.
