The tag light will have to be changed from underneath the trunk lining. There are plugs that hold the lining in place. Here is a photo showing those plugs:

Here's another photo showing where the bulb harnesses are. You want to remove the harnesses that are closer to the top of the trunk.

As for the side marker lenses you can do one of two things. You can take the headlight out and access behind the bumper. The assembly just pushes out. Or you can take a screw driver and carefully pry behind the assembly that's closer to the rear of the car. The assembly is held in by a metal clip. Here's a pic of the side marker out of the car:

The lumbar is maxed out and I can not relieve it. So my seat is gauging into my back. I have posted a few times and noone seems to respond. I have not checked the fuse but the pasenger side works fine so I assume it is the button. Thanks for asking Gray. You are the first.

Not to hijack this thread but I haven't had the seats out yet so I don't about the lumbar. It sounds like either a fuse or maybe a wire has come loose. What year is your car?

Should I make a new thread. I would hate to make anyone angry, cause everyone so far has been extremely helpful except for this dang lumbar issue.
 
I bet it is loose or broken wires under the drive seat - as it moves back and forth alot - same issue with the airbag light coming on.

Well, according to my service manual Fuse #207 powers the driver side seat module and seat adjustment. That fuse block is located in the passenger foot well on the right side. Here's a diagram to find which fuse is #207:

Check that fuse but I don't think that will be your problem. You'll probably need to check the connection to the lumbar motor. It's connector C366 on my diagram. Click here to see how to get to the lumbar motor.

If you've checked the connection and the fuse you probably have either a bad lumbar switch or motor.

Gray,

I played with it last night after work and have come to the conclusion that I need a new switch. I will be picking one up very soon. Thanks for your help and I will talk to all of you very soon.
