Coupe tail light removal Options

[FallenHero]

I went to remove my tail lights today...

There are three bolts, but one of them is blocked by a plastic piece of some sort which clamps onto the bolt under it. It holds the liner of the trunk up I guess. I could not get it out, and I was wondering if I would have to remove the trunk liner to get the lights out. If somebody has done this before, I could use the help.

I didn't have the remove the trunk liner in order to get my tail-lights out, but none of my bolts were blocked by the little plastic pieces. You may have to remove it in order to get to your tail-lights. It's really not hard to remove at all though.

umm let me see...on my GT hatch ive got 3 bolts easily popped off with a flathead. then theres like maybe one more that can be popped off, one that looks like a screw, well unscrew it...then toward the top there is a little one that needs to be pushed inward. The plastic liner should come off...umm...there is a metal peice attached under the plastic to ur car you might need to take off. yeah, im being very vague because i dont remember much.

Actually, I was misinterpreting the placement of the bolts.

There are two you can see, and one hidden for each lamp. The last on is inside the fender, you have to open up the little plastic door thing(like where the jack is) to get it.
