Oh yeah... forgot to mention, if the assembly is the same as my '95
(and it looks like it is, though they swapped the turn signal lens),
you need to put the shop rag btw the taillight assembly and the car,
and pry it on the side... the light backs straight out. Those two pins
you see inside the car are perp. to the actual pins on the light
assembly... the pins on the assembly itself are male.
