Sorry for the dumb question, but I didn't want to break anything and I wasn't able to find the answer via Search.

For the outer brake lights, how do you get to them to replace the bulbs? I've popped off the two caps on the inner edge and removed those screws, but they still seem to be connected by something on the 3rd corner. I don't have to remove the interior trunk "carpeting" do I?

Thx.

 

nope dont have to do anything on the inner lining... just pull on the outside. theres 2 clips that hold it in place. they should free up.

 

hahha jeff!!!!!!! you should have brought the bulb yesterday and i will change it for you at the spot for free man!

you have loosen up all the bolts you need. just jiggle the tailights around and it should came out. if i remember right, the bottom part of the taillight is "stuck" behind the bumper, so you kinda have to pull out the top part a bit and jiggle it around.

 

Thanks guys! I was just afraid of snapping something off if I jiggled too hard!

LOL, Henry! I almost did bring the bulbs with me!

 

haha jeff, come on you know i would have done it for you at the spot

definitely don't force any issue, jiggle is your friend sometimes
