I havewan 88. The taillight assembly must be taken off car.. This is what (rear part of the body comes off ) surrounds the lense. If I remember correctly their are 3 or 4 bolts holding the assembly. 2 or 3 Bolts are inside the trunk and one is underneath on the outsideof the vehicle. There may be rubber caps hiding the bolts. When all the bolts are off wiggle the assembly. If it wont move , better to makes sure no more bolts are holding it before excessive pressure used. Once this is taken off, the whole assembly will separate from the vehicle. Then unplug the light. The lense screws out from the inside and is pulled thru. I hope this helps and good luck.
Open the tail gate and look in at the side of the bed were the light lens is and you will see 2 small screws. Remove them and then pull the brake light lens out.
unbolt the light from inside the trunk and pull it out and then you will see how the lens comes out.
The whole assembly snaps out. Pry the outside (rearmost) end of the lens out. Once its out the socket unscrews from the back of the lens and the lamp can be pulled out of the socket. It uses a #168 lamp.
You have to cange the whole light.
Both the lens and the light pull out.
it bends the light toward a single point
To change a tail light on a 1988 Celebrity: Open the trunk. Look on the back of the side light you want to change. There will be several 10 mm nuts. Remove the nut in the center of the tail light lens. It is usually silver. The lens will then pull out a bit, then there is a tab into the backup light, pull the lens out of that. You can then remove the light socket and replace the bulb.
pop the trunk and right behind where the lights are pull the carpet down and their will be either light sockets that twist and pull,or there will be plastic nuts,just unscrew and take the lens off
Remove the two screws that hold the lens on, remove the lens and change the bulbs.
This is related to a change in the direction of the light - this is called refraction.
To change the license plate light on a 2002 Geo Tracker, remove the light lens with a small screwdriver. Take out the old bulb and replace with a new one. Tighten the screws on the light lens.
