You didn't mention the model year, but I am assuming pre-2000. On my 1999 model there are only the two screws hiding behind the plugs you mention. There is a flexible gasket material that provides for sealing the tailight unit to the body and this must be gently broken loose. I have found that on my rig it is easiest to allow it to sit in the sun for about 2 hours and then gently wiggle the unit and it will pop out.
You didn't ask, but my hint would be to be sure to use a magnetic screw driver when reinstalling - - once dropped into the cavity those screws are very difficult to retrieve.

but which way do you pull it?
Now this is really stupid. Which way do you pull the tailight , towards the rear or out to the side?
