Gen1 Rear Trunk TailLight Removal - HELP!

[MsM8tress]

Hi Hotties,

I have been searching, googling, everything, how do I get that sucker off once I get it unscrewed...got the 4 bolts out..now, what is supposed to stay and what can I take out, only need the left side (drvs).

The top and bottom black seal wants to come up with the left lamp cover (plastic red thing), however the seal is the only part of the assembly that is connected all the way across the trunk....I'll check back...I am still searching looking and trying.

Thanks in advance Hotties!

SMOOCH!

there are 6 bolts, not 4 - the other two are at the extreme ends of the trunk.

I took mine off yesterday.

i think it is also one piece joined in the centerso be careful. The rubber likes to stick since it has been on so long.....

Ahhh, came back, clicked, much better!!! Thanks!!! I was trying to only take half off, the Red plastic is in two pieces, once I oculdnt' get the rest lose, I started the thread! Im soooooooo glad I didn't continue to remove it! I would have jacked it up for sure.
I was able to get the busted out piced back into the red plastic, see how long it stays, Hopefully ,till I can get a new one!

Debi, When your neice gets to the age to drive a car, hook her up with a Mark VIII.
