dammit. backed in too close to something and i broke the right rear tail lamp. its the lower section of the assembly, so i don't think there's a bulb in there...anyways, i'll tape it until one pops up on ebay. BUT, is it easy to change?

yea, in the back behind the capartment there are three little nuts that have to come off before the assembly can come out.

Right, no bulb in the lower portion, just a reflector plastic.Be-careful not to drop the nuts down into the body... I have been there but my magnet tool picked it up.Also, there is a white wire strain relief on one of the threaded posts that must be removed before the retaining nut can be. It is a bear and I made my own tool to remove it. Of course you could just break it off since it just holds the wires but I hate to ba a hack on my cars...
