Default Searched: Rear Spoiler Brake Light Removal

I'm guessing the light is burnt out. It has not worked since I bought the car. I removed the 2 screws and i'm trying to remove the entire light piece and it won't come out. Anyone know a trick or what I can do? Thanks


Also in the rear lights. You have your reverse lights, after you have 2 bulbs for the brake lights, then you have the turn signal lights, and then you have a bulb in the far corner that is always on. Anyways on one side of my car it's burnt out. I removed the plastic piece in my trunk and I still can't get to it..... Is it reachable?

Thanks

The high-mount stop light is a hassle to remove. Here is what I do:
Unscrew the screws about 3/4 of the way
Push them down at an angle so that the threads of the screw are hooked inside the hole
Rock this up and down until the light comes out
Be careful - don't break anything

The rear light side marker is reachable. Remove the inner taillight cover toward the side. The light will be held in the hole with a long bracket that you squeeze and pull to remove. This is very easy.

Hope this helps.

The rear spoiler light was easy. I did what you wrote and all went well.

The corner rear light beside the flasher which is red hasn't been changed yet cause the bulb was broken so i'm going to get plyers to try and unscrew it out. After that all my lights will be runing!
