Looks like I remove the interior panels in the trunk and undo a couple of screws. Anybody got a writeup? tia

It's really really easy. Just take off the two little oval shaped panels to get your right and left tail lights out and for the middle to have to pull off the panel. Then just losen the nuts, disconnect the harnesses going to the lights or twist the light bulbs to take them out. Also I think the nuts you have to losen are 10mm.

i dont think you can ever get the bulbs mixed up, if i remember correctly the outer boot will not fit into the inner 2 sockets, so its basically idiot-proof
