Re: Removal of 4th Gen tailights

its fairly easy....2 hand unscrewable ***** behind each taillight in ur trunk under the carpet..... light pops out....twist off the bulbs and the taillight is removed.....i do suggest if the taillights r not brand new that u re-seal them with clear sealer....moisture in the taillights is a biatch and loooks really crappy! good luck! any other ?'s post em up

just pull down the grey plastic/carpeting stuff. There are wing nuts hidden all the way along the far corner towards the quarter panel.

if you still have your spare tire, the one on the outside will be hard to get to on the passenger side

when you put them back in just push on the taik light and tighten the wing nuts just finger tight and when u let the pressure off they will be tight enough to not move and you wont have striped the plastic wing nuts out
