Removing the brake light on a 2000 SSEi

How do you go about removing the trunk tail light on 2000 ssei? I removed all the bolts that I could see holding it on but the darn thing didn't want to move.

actually he is talking about the center taillight

there are 4 Bolts and then 2 clips, right behind the area of the amber part of the taillight. You must get the clips off, and they are a pain. My suggestion is to get something with a little leverage, stidk it between the light and the trunk and then slowly pry the light off. Its not an easy task to say the least
