I'm just trying the basics of taking parts off and I'm trying to figure some things out. Most importantly to me, how do you take off the tailights? I know there are screws in the trunk, but mine are covered by a plastic.. thing. I tried pulling at it a little bit, but I was afraid I'd break it. Do those just snap off? Should I break them off (lol)?

Also, I read a how-to on painting your dash inserts as a cheap way to make it look like a new interior trim kit. How do you just take the parts illustrated (check the how-to out) off of the dash, I mean, they isn't like a snap or anything..

Thanks,
-Brian

Aight, cool man. Thanks for letting me know. I took off the back cover in my hatch, saw the wires and all, started working on those screws. I couldn't find the toolkit in my house though, so I used a simple wrench.. no luck though, one of the bolts is on there really tight, and when you turn it, it turns the whole screw... I'll just have to use the right tool.

I'll try taking out the inserts tomorrow, thank you for the help.
