take off the bolts... and push real hard from the inside... u'll feel it start to budge... it's because of the sealant that it won't just pop rite off....

Use a hair dryer to heat up the glue... it will help loosen it up so you don't have to be a Superman to push the tails out.

Maybe his tails got cracked from getting rear ended, or scratched.

You need to take the tail light out because there are 2 things under each light taht holds the bumper
My Taillights are fine
I didn't know what to do thats why i asked...i didn't want to crack the light. but once i gave it a good push that **** just came out
Thanks for the help
