How to remove rear tail lights?
Does anyone know how to remove the tail lights?
If it matters: 2004 SL600, left side tail light.
Thanks in advance.

tailight removal
You have to raise the trunk as if you were putting the top down, i.e. trunk opened on the hinges over the lights. Now the bars of the trunk are out of the way. You then need to unscrew the two rubbers and then remove the clips and then the rear plastic piece. You then have to remove the carpet clips and the carpet preferably on both sides inside the fenders, but you might be able to reach the nuts with only one side of the carpet removed.
