In the third-gen Camaros and Firebirds, you must first remove the inside-rear of the trunk. That will give you access to several large plastic 'wingnuts' (usually black). Remove the wingnuts on the side that has the blown bulb. This will leave a stud that sticks in to the trunk where each of the wingnuts were. Push gently out on the studs, the tail light lens will loosen and can be pulled off the car. You can change the bulb by pushing in and turning. I always buy the higher cost, long life bulbs. This is too much of a pain to do over and over. It's also a good chance to clean the tail light lens and the area around it.
you don't replace the tail light you just replace the bulb in it
This is because the tail light bulb has a different element in the bulb. Just replace the bulb and that will fix the problem.
Remove tail light housing. Remove lamp. Replace lamp. Replace tail light housing.
Replace the light bulb. Tail lights are usually dual filament, 2 filaments in one bulb.

To replace the rear tail light bulb on a Mazda MX-3, first, open the trunk and locate the tail light assembly. Remove the screws or clips securing the assembly, then gently pull it out from the car. Twist the bulb socket counterclockwise to remove it, then replace the old bulb with a new one, ensuring it is securely in place. Finally, reassemble the tail light assembly and test the new bulb to ensure it works.

When the tail light and break light are on the same bulb said bulb has 2 elements, one for the break and the other for the tail light, one element is burned out. Replace the bulb. If you've replaced the bulb, it might be the wiring. The holder for the bulb sometimes is at fault. They are $40.00 at the dealer, but at a pick a part or salvage yard they are $2.00.
