How do I get the the light bulb on back of the trunk? one of the bulb went out, the red light next to the back up light, I can't seem to get the housing open. Do I need to remove the whole long piece of panel inside the trunk to get to the light bulb?

Thank you in advance.

Pull the trunk liner back so you can get to the 3-4 nuts that hold the light assembly , Remove the nuts and pop out the assy., Then you can get to the bulbs easily. When this happens to me I replace all the bulbs on both sides while I am in there. You know "Murphy's Law" ? I may be excessive, That's just the way I am.
