Kyles ej1

EJ1 n EK9

^^ what he said... 8mm socket 4 of em to be exact...

dmotoguy

the two farthest toward the center are too far back behind the plastic i think...

Daniel_san

there's plastic things that pop right out.

did you even try to do this ? cause it seems like you jsut posted this for no reason

dmotoguy

pull the plastic thing back and open the bolts...... a little hard but its possible. , u dont have to take it off.

dmotoguy

how is the middle piece that goes from one side to the other in the rear connected, i just dont want to break it..

DemostheneZ

what are you doing man? put the altezza's back in that box and return them!!

dmotoguy

i just got this hatch and it had a broken tail.. so i got some jdm tails..

im done now.. i just didnt wanna hurt my interior without knowing how it was all connected, i thought i could just post here and you guys would tell me.. but its ok..

It kinda feels like you're breaking something, but it all pops out. Its a Honda....

EK22snatch

yeah dont worry about it man, i felt like a dumbass too when i had to fix my taillight. i was also concerned i was gonna break something. better safe than sorry, right?

Not sure if you got it out already. But I just un did a few of the plastic push pins that hold the plastic in then carefully unsnapped the corner so I could get my arm and hand back in. I tried going through the dumb access panel and I could not get my socket on the nuts easily. Plus it made it a lot easier to get the nuts back on and I was not droping them and loosing them. Make sure you put the rubber/foam gasket on when you replace the lights or you may get some water in there.
