Answer by  sscroft (76)

Open trunk, pull carpeting away from back of tail light, there should be plastic push pins holding it in place. Unbolt tail lamp from body, twist and remove bulb. Replace bulb. Be sure that the bulb works properly before reinstalling tail lamp. Bolt tail lamp back into place and reattach carpeting with push pins.

The brake lights are located inside the car. Remove the trim covering the tail lights, and then remove the bulb and replace.

Open the trunk lid. Carefully peel back the carpeting that covers the tail lights. Identify the bad bulb. Remove the wiring clip. Remove bad bulb and replace with new one.

Start by removing the light housing. Sometime a panel in the trunk must be move to get to the hardware. After the housing in removed unhook the socket from the housing by twisting it. Then install the new bulb in the socket. The install the socket in the housing. Check the light and bolt it back up.
