@kemisi, Kerry Simms, UPDATED, Use the written instructions and the video link in my original answer and you should not have a problem removing taillight. I also posted a link to what the taillight looks like from the back side showing the 2 mounting studs, just click through the different views below the pic. If not comfortable doing this, take into a good shop and have a technician do it for you, approx 1/2 hour labor charge.

First link is worthless, it simply takes you to an advertisement for lightbulbs. It doesn't show you how to remove a tail light assembly, something required if you are attempting to change out a side marker bulb. Second link is also worthless, it just takes you to ebay listing of tailight assemblies.
