how do you remove the 3rd tail light in the rear deck area. light is intermittent.

thanks for all replies

Send me your e-mail address by PM and I will give you a link to the FSM. See pages LI-139-140. You basically remove the rear seats, rear door scuff plates, the rear doors opening trim weatherstrips, the rear seat side garnishs, the inner roof side garnish assemblies, and the tray trim panel assembly.

Geez, for that much effort, I'd consider installing LED bulbs.

Do you have to remove the engine to replace the marker light bulb? lol

No, just the power steering pump, the wheel wells, quarter panels, grill, radiator, exhaust manifold, and steering rack.
