Replacing a tail lamp ...
Hi guys -- has anyone replaced a tail lamp before? If so, can you give me some pointers? Our trunks are full of carpeting/liners ... and I was wondering whether the liners are sectional ... or whether it's all one-piece, requiring me to remove the entire thing to access a tail lamp. Also, I note only 5 screws on the new tail lamp assembly. Are there any other tools I should have? Thanks very much. I HATE VALET PARKERS!

Open the Trunk...Remove the carpet panels to access the tail lights..Remove the wire harness plugs at the tail lights..remove the Nuts for the tail lights...VERY EASY!...BTW (IF) Your car has Airmatic one will have to remove the air tank to access the Pass side tail light...30 min max to do both sides
