I dont remember exactly but when we had to take off my buddy's 04 rsx we had to push it towards the middle and/or from side to side, like I said you can't be too gentle with it... by the way, if you guys are putting on the altezza ones, they don't fit/look right like the oem and sealing is not very good either...

each taillight housing has a screw holding the bottom of it, if you get underneath the rear bumper and look up there with a flashlight you will see it.

also it's difficult to remove them without removing the bumper first.

<edit>actually might be 2 screws per housing iirc

dont put altezza's on either wya because one time you will fall out of that scene and want the stock ones back...EVERYONE does that. that start off kidna ricer, the wings, load exhaust, neon lights then realize," im stupid" and see clean mean looking ones and try to make a type r instead of ricing so dont rice cause u'll waste ur money! just my opinion...

its probably too late by now,, they most likely took it off my now.. but yah Ricing it up will just deprive the car for what it is and you will just be another target for the cops.
