On the inside of the trunk, there are bolts sticking through from each light. Undo the 3 nuts(12mm if I remember right). Once undone, the light will come out exposing the 'twist off' pieces in which the bulbs sit. You can find bulbs at any auto parts store or walmart.

I bought some at Wal Mart.The directory said 1157 lights. Is this correct?

Should be, I've only changed those lights once in the 5 years I've had the car.

I've changed one of mine twice. Once b/c I broke it when I took it out to paint my taillights and once when I got rear ended for the second time. Im not sure about the bulb # but i think its actually a 10 mm wrench. Also one of the 3 nuts is inside the little side pocket of the trunk and you'll have to open it to get to it.
