When you want to take the carpet thing off in the trunk to get to your reverse lites you just pry those 2 black plastic things off right?

Well on my car, there are three fasteners that hold the liner in place on each side. Two you need to "un-screw" a little then pry off, and the other is a hook that you just pry the top off then pry the whole thing off. THen just pull the liner out so you can get to the lights. I hope that helps.

aw come on greg save him some trouble just open the hood and look directly behind the headlight and u'll see black nubs covered in rubber. squeeze the sides as hard as possible and pull them out it takes some finese(spelling??) but once you get it its not hard at all. pull out the divise put the new bulbs in and put back easy as pie just remember not to touch the bulb
