ok here it is
when u open up the trunk, look to the inside lining of plastic..the plastic that keeps the water out
there are two little plastic pieces on each side
open those two up and unscrew the screws..
then pop open the lense for light..
very easy

the IS300 is not like a camry, the light lense actually pops out really easy, and is not done thru the inside of the trunk

yea, it should just pop out...
once u undo the 2 screws, use a flat head screw driver and jsut lightly pop open the lense..it will come out easier than taking candy from a baby
=) not like ive tried that before or anything ,, haha
