Newbie - how to change my right light bulb in 2001 TL

Hello,

I noticed my right most lightbulb in my right rear tail light is out. It was dark at the time but I didn't see how to even get to the tail light from inside the trunk as there is a lot of material there. I'll look again during the day but I'm wondering if it is hard to get to.

Thanks

they have some plastic knobs on the inside of the trunk around the area where your tail light is.

remove enough of them to pull the material away and it will expose the harness and lamp. its a fairly easy process. it'll be easier to see once you've gotten to that point.
