4th Gen Taillight Replacement (Bulbs)

I found out that my one of the bulbs on my passenger side taillight is burnt out. The bulb that is burnt out is the far right one on the passenger side. To remove the light I just need to pull back the carpet in the hatch, remove a couple bolts to pull out the taillight and then unscrew the old bulb and put in a new one?

What bulb do I need to replace it? It's the far right one on the passenger side.

for some reason i think the bulbs are 194's. There are some places on the net that will tell you the exact bulb. You just pull the carpet back and there will be plastic wing nuts you take off and the light will come out.

As Z95 said above, it's REAL easy to do. I just replaced mine a few months ago. What the number is though? I can't remember. Just call your local autostore and they should be able to tell you exactly what part you're looking for by punching your year/model car in the computer. That's how they do it around here at least...

It sounds easy enough that I can just take it out and take it in with me and I've had two people tell me it's 194's so that sounds like it is it.

Thanks guys!

Yup the far corners are 194's, piece of cake to replace.

Thanks.
