Not quite sure on yours, I know some earlier models you had to remove one nut, then snap the whole lens unit off the car, others had the lamp sockets buried behind misc trim pieces.. maybe pick up a Chilton's manual or something to refer to.

There are 5 nuts to remove inside the trunk 1 under the plastic trim on the edge of the trunk seal,its a real pain because the nuts are not real big. :D
