How to remove tail lights

just ordered LED's for rear tail lights from auto lumination. Had them installed but the left side is no longer working (turn signal and brake light). Has anyone had a problem like this?

can anyone tell me how to remove the tail light to see if it is a loose connection?

check the stickies!

make sure to be gentle while giving it that tug because once it gives you can scratch up the paint that is right under it...I did

lol

Where do you get these LED's, eBay? Nice and bright, remind me of my wife's '06 Passat which are really bright.

imo, buyer beware of autolumination...right now my other switch-back bulb is starting to have a minor flicker to it. As I've mentioned before, for the money put into these bulbs, you would expect something of great quality.
