Taillight Removal

I have a 95 Camry V6 sedan. I am trying to remove my left tailight to replace the tail/brake bulb. The manual says to remove two screws from the right hand side of the taillight. There are no screws (unless I am blind) that come out of the molded right side of the talilight. The only screws (or rather nut) I can see is if I go into the trunk and peel back the interior material away (in the process removing two/three plastic grommets). and see two nuts projecting towards the front of the vehicle.

1) Am I Blind? are there two screws the screw into the molded right side of the left taillight?

2) do I have to take the interior of the trunk apart to get to the screws?

Help would be appreciated.

Mike

There should be screws that you can see when you pop the trunk, they'll be on the outside of the tail-light coming out from the sides (they won't go straight through).

There should be 2 for each tail-light. After that, you have to wiggle the tail-light out.
