Revised: Is there a guide on removing taillights on an 07?

I did a search and didn't come up with anything. Any help would be great. I need to remove the whole assembly.

Thanks in advance, Brandon


Edit: I added how I removed them below.

 

Yeah I ended up getting it after a while not too hard to do.

 

Just open the hatch. Take out the rear carpet and rear panel/lid on the storage bin. Remove the storage bin so that the spare tire is visible. Take out the small panel/lid in the drivers side rear corner and just pull the small plastic bin upwards until it pops out. You will need to give it a firm tug to pop it out though. Now remove the panel/lid that covers the battery on the opposite side you were just working on. Now grab some sockets and a phillips screwdriver and remove the bottom metal peices on both sides where you hook the bottom of the cargo net to. Now pull the plastic peice that surrounds the latch where the hatch hooks to when closed upward. Once again just firmly pull until it pops out. Now if you look to the left and right of where the last peice was where the carpet material starts and run that verticaly to the upper plastic peice starts you'll see a screw inset there. Remove that screw on both sides. Now just pull the carpeted peice until it pops out. You should now have enough access to the rear of the taillight assembly. Now locate two longer studs that have the wires routed on the end of them and just pull the clip out so that the nut can be accessed and removed. Once those two nuts are removed the assembly just pulls out.

Another way you can try is to just remove the two small plastic panels that are attached to the carpeting directly behind the light. This is where you access the bulbs for replacement. With a small enough arm you may be able to reach inside there and locate the nuts with your socket that way instead of all the crap described above. Didn't try because I had no clue when I started.

This should help a bit. Pretty hard to describe without pictures though, sorry if this wasn't much help.

 

Yeah definetly try the easy route first. And yes, only 2 screws on each assembly.
