Default How to remove the tail light assemble from 08 civic?

Trying to remove the right tail light assembly from a 08 civic. I removed the 4 obvious nuts on the backside but unit will still not come out.

Does anyone know what else is holding this in?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The easiest way to remove the taillight is to take the rear bumper completely off. It can be done by removing all but 2 (or 3) of the bumper securing tabs and screws and let the bumper hang. But it's just much easier to remove entire bumper. Once the bumper is off or hanging, you can access the remainder of the screws on the bottom of the taillight assembly.
