I have a little bulging on my right corner tail light, and was trying to tighten it up on that side. So what ended up happening was I torqued it down too much on one of the four nuts, and the threaded bolt brokeoff. So I dunno what my options are now.

If I knew it couldn't handle that stress I would of just taken that corner tail out and grinded down where it was pinching with a dremel. It's still in there securely but the bulging just pisses me off

My car is a 98 EX coupe, and they are aftermarket tails

also i can't tell specifically where the pinch is, is there a method or way of telling exactly where I should shave it down a little?

thanks.

I'll try to get a pic up.

I would dump those cheap azz Altezza tails and put in '99-'00 OEM tails (they have clear turn signal lenses which look really nice).

there si style tails, smoked out tinted for half the price... but not the dirt cheap kind

I like them, only one corner has a slight bulge.

I'm not sure if it's the light or more so my rear might be miss aligned a little, when i bought it the rear bumper was hit looks like a few times by previous owner.

I'll just take that corner off and see if the bolt can come out and be replaced, then shave down where it's tight with my dremel.
