Not knowing what model might help, but posting a pic of where you mean would be better. Center brake light? side brake lights?

There are some that are retained by a series of nuts, others that push pin. The push pin style has a small center section that pulls out and then the whole fastener can be pulled out.

Hi, Thanx for the replay. The model is MK6 and i need to remove rear right light cover (circuled on the picture). After you replied i found one wing screw on bottom from inside of the plastic and one bolt on top. But i do not know how to remove top bolt screw (i'm affraid to pull the plastic harder to not brake it). Is there any tip how to remove top bolt? BR, Simce
