How do I get to my tail lights?

[Cvx_Rage]

I'm blacking them out in a couple weeks and one of them is crooked and i wanted to fix that before I blacked them out. Only thing is they seem like they are glued in there or something. I have no idea how to get the casing off of them or anything. My right one tilts to the left and looks weird if you pay attention to it up close and it's just bothering me

you have to open your trunk and pull back the carpet. there are some plastic caps that hold the carpet against the metal. then you just use a socket wrench and remove the nuts ( i think the nuts are 10mm). then just adjust them lights once they are loose and retighten them when the look straight. althought i wouldnt suggest tryin to pry the plastic casing off because it might break, but if you do it that way make sure you seal them back up tightly with super glue or some other kind of sealent or adhesive otherwise they will get water and condensation in them. if that happens they look like crap and it could burn your bulbs out or worse.

Yes they are 10mm nuts

cracking the casing open generally requires an oven or heat gun to soften the glue.
