How do I replace a brake light? There seems to be no screws inside or out for easy access.

Hi:
If you move the carpet away from the back of the light assembly, you will find wing nuts that remove the light assembly. Remove it and you will have access to the bulbs.

It's not that easy. There is a carpet faced panel that is covering the light assembly and attached with a plastic "rivet".

Hi:
I believe the plastic rivit is removeable. I think it screws off.
