Piece of cake, usually a small trap door inside the trunk

Stacy just google you make/model + changing blinker bulb. A youtube video or at the minimum, a write up will walk you through it.

Is it weird that I'm turned on by your use of the word "rear"?

You just lift the trunk, slip ya hand inside, find the right spot, grasp firmly and give it a lil twist. If that does not work you may have to wiggle it a bit.







Hope this helps.

Unless someone hits the brakes while your doing it you won't get zapped. If you are really nervous you can always unhook the battery

You shouldnt have to touch a bare wire, just the harness that plugs in to the light.

Or just take it to autozone and flirt at the guy, boom new taillight.

Just refill your blinker fluid, probably just low
