Wow, I would never use a metal pry bar there. If you have to use metal wrap in in electrical tape. You can get plastic pry bars at Harbor freight.
And besides, you don't need a pry bar at all use your hand.

Oh and this is one electrical thing you can do and not disconnect the battery. Unless the owners manual says to do it. Since its a 96 I don't know for sure.

Thank you for the pictures but I encourage you to reformat this into a more reader-friendly write-up.
Personally I would have just swapped the bolts out from inside the trunk, they're accessible by popping a few interior clips and pulling the liner back as I recall.

and yes there is no need to disconnect the battery for this job! also YES protect that paint by covering your pry tool with tape, or using a plastic tool instead!

Holy crap. Those 3 people didn't even read and understand my post carefully before providing the EXPERT advice.
this method is the only way the bulbs are to be replaced, and are not accessible via the trunk unfortunately.

Is there a better writeup than this on-site for 90-94? I wish this point physically pointed out which bulbs is being replaced here. On my vehicle the upper left most light is on with the tail lights but goes out when brakes are pressed; seems like some others are on, just not as bright.
