My right reverse light has went out, and I wanted to know if the plastic covering on the rear lights pops off? I tried to pull it off and it didn't want to come easily and I didn't want to tear up nothing that going to cost me money to fix. I like to change my own bulbs because I figure I can save the money a mechanic would charge. Any tips guys this is for a 1990? Thanks a bunch.

Your lights are mounted on the trunk lid right? You should be able to go in behind the lid and get the bulbs that way.

DO NOT pull off the lense...

99% sure you need to take off the entire tailight to get to the bulbs... should be several 10mm nuts behind the carpet

Change the bulbs from inside the trunk, not from outside.

Here are some photos.I dont see how I can reach the bulbs from inside the trunk for the earlier Bonneville models.





When I remove the trunk carpet all I see are these two things and blue steel. I don't see how I can remove the bulb. By removing them.




But looking at the plastic leans here, you can see where it looks as if can just use a screwdriver to pop it and reach the bulbs.

See the little "black thingies"? Unscrew them. The whole taillight will come off, then you can replace the bulbs.

Thank you so much, so simple, but yet I couldn't figure that out lol. Pepboys here I come!!!
