Back-up lights

I ordered a set of PIAA back-up lights for my 2006 TL and my dads 2005 RL.

Mine installed really easy since the lights are located on the trunk.

How do I swap the RL's back-up lights. When I was looking at it it seems like the whole taillight housing has to come out... is there an easy way to do this?
Does anyone have any diagrams or suggestions?

Thanks

you are correct, the whole tail light assembly needs to come out.

Where did you get the back up lights and what did they cost you?

Thanks

Oh ok, thanks I will consult the manual.

I ordered them from www.autobarn.com, about 13 bucks!
