Removing rear (trunk) brakelight
Hey guys, I'm working on the car before I take it down to the dragon, and wanted to polish up the rear brake light. My job would be far easier if I could remove it. Is it hard? What is involved? Thanks for any help!

1) Open Trunk
2) Disconnect 2 pin connector
3) Remove 5 Mounting Nuts. Tighten from the center and alternate side to side when you put the nuts back. Like torqing wheel nuts.
When you reinstall it in reverse order run some water over it to make sure it doesn't leak. If it leakes snug the nuts a bit. No torque listed in Helm Manual....
