It's not as easy as it should be. This is how I did it. Pop the trunk lid. You will see one or more black knobs in the area of the tail light assembly holding the interior surface. Unscrew the knob closest to the tail light assembly. You will see also a plastic strip running along the latch sill. It is held in place by four plastic screws. These work like anchor screws for drywall. First unscrew the screw and then pop out the screw housing. I removed all four. You might get by by removing the two closest to the tail light.

Pull the interior wall away from the tail light assembly. There will not be a lot of room and you want to pull the interior away just enough to get your hand behind it. Locate the blown bulb/s and twist the bulb holder. It will come free with the bulb. The bulbs are friction fitted, just pull out of the fixture.

Assembly is the reverse of this.
