They screw in from the back. Sometimes the light assy has to be removed.
Turn you high beams on and check your tail light. If its brighter, you have a head light bulb as a tail light bulb. 97-02 are the only ones that should do this. Find a tail light bulb and replace.(I couldn't believe it either).

Open the tailgate. On the inside next to the tail light, there will be two plastic covers. Remove them. You will see a Phillips head screw deep in the hole. These hold the light in place. Be careful removing them because they can fall down inside the vehicle. Use a magnetic tip screwdriver if possible. The light will then pull out of the truck. Then remove the plastic light module from the tail light. All the bulbs are connected to this module. Installation is reverse of removal. Just be careful not to drop the screw in the body cavity.
Pop the trunk. Pull back the carpet/plastic piece that covers the back side of the tail light. there are three bolts and two wires with clips. Push the button on the clips and pull them out firmly. Remove the bolts, the whole light should then slide out of the back. Put the new one in, put on the bolts and connect the wires.
To replace the light, it all depends on the year of the Accord. I have a 5th gen(94-97), and I know how to replace the 4th gen(90-93)
