tail light removal?

[fourpointfoureye]

I have a taillight bulb that no longer burns bright (or burns at all)...

How do you remove the tail lights? I do not see any screws to unscrew...

Thanks in advance...

Here's a pic of my SAV with the tail lights that needs replacing.

fourpointfoureye,

The answer to the question you seek is:

1) Open the rear tail gate.
2) Remove the left rear panel (covering the CD changer) and the right rear panel.
3) From there you will be able to access the tail light bulbs.

Best...

Mine had corrosion on the metal paths around the bulb socket. Instead of a burnt bulb, It just needed to be cleaned. I lost three sockets down in the quarterpanel fixing it and had to buy a magnet on a stick. Get 'er done.
Must be the guy in the light department was looking for an annual review kudo for reinventing the taillight bulb socket?

theres 3 10mm nuts that you have to take off when your looking at the back of the tail light.

Its a pain to get in there and just make sure you dont drop any of the nuts. Once they fall under the cd player or speaker box (if you have that) there practicaly impossible to get out w/o taking the cd player or speaker box out.
