Tail Light removal

[Iceman2733]

Hello I have a weird little issue I have a tail light rattling. Was wondering if anyone know how to get access to the tail light housing I am going to try and tighten it all back down. Drove it to the dealership they said they think the housing is bad before they even looked at it so I am going to try and see if it loose before wasting my time at the dealership.

Its on page 5 of this PDF; no pics but sounds pretty straightforward.

I wonder if there is any "play" when you put the taillights back in. I would love to see if I could get the driver side to align with the rear plastic panel.

Yes, there is slight adjustments up and down - my trunk lid panel is a little better after adjusting the left tail light.

I removed the driver taillight this morning and put in a rubber washer between the screw and the body panel on the two inner most screws and it worked great. Not perfect, but need to realize this is due to a miswelded body panel, but it is much better and I can live with it now.

Hello.
So I don't open another thread, do any of you know how to open the tail light"?
I managed to get it out and stuff, but I'm afraid to meddle in it. Do I have to put it in an oven or smth like the headlights?
Thanks.

There is another member that made a thread along with a video if adding some spacers/washers to make the left tail more flush. Wish i could find it.
