On the 95-98. Open the trunk. The screws (2) are just inside the trunk. After you remove them, very carefully push outward in the lens. The lens has a pin on the outer side that sticks into the car body. This pin can stick, so be very careful not to break something.
On my 2002 Protege ES, the process is a bit different
There are two plastic retainer do-hickeys on the hard that are made up of an inner circle and outer ring. Both of these are easily visible.
They are removed by first loosening the inner circle (probably moves back about 1cm), and then the whole do-hickey can be removed by gently prying the outer rings.
The hard vinyl still feels attached, so you can move it/lift it by hand until it moves over the rear release latch. This gives you enough room to operate.
The hard cloth (who's edge is covered by the vinyl) has two of those plastic retainer do-hickeys. Remove them too. Then you can access the back of the assembly/sheet metal.
Then there are three brass-ish long screws with 10mm nuts. Remove those three nuts, and you can pull out the tail light assembly.
