Third (3rd) brake light wont come out
 

I got a problem i am trying to prime my trunk lid but my 3rd brake light cover does not want to come out. All the gust came out but the red piece is stuck. I tried to hammer it out with a rubber hammer but it does not want to come out. Is there a trick to get it out or its just stuck?


I searched but could not find anything on this topic.

I just taped over mine and it worked fine.

yeah, i was hammering it pretty hard and it just dose not want to come out. I will try again.

it's stuck. use a flathead screwdriver and ply it out.

Pry it from inside the lid or out side the lid?

you did take the two friggin screws on the inside out right? that's the only thing that would stop it from coming out seriously!!!...... POINTLESS THREAD!! Your asking retarded questions, let me ask you this, do you own a hanes manual for your car? If not GET one and save our bandwith for some of hustlers useless shit, At least that shit is funny.

Chill out.

I did take two screws that hold the light housing. The only thing that is attached to the trunk lid is the red plastic.

GRR, so just the plastic red part? the other grey piece broke off? if so you need a new one now.... :giggle: but seriously it isn't hard...

The plastic grey piece came right out. Its two pieces grey and the red piece. The question i have is the red piece connected in anyway to the trunk lid or its just sitting on the gasket? If its not connected i am just going to keep tapping it out of the trunk lid.

Take a picture, the couple times I've taken out the 3rd BL I do believe it all came out in one piece and only two 10mm nuts (I think, it's been a while) were holding the entire assembly in.

I can see that the red part has clips to hold on to the grey part. Something tells me its just caked to the lid.

Smack that bitch with a rubber mallet then, you do know which way it comes out (if it was on the car it would fall into the trunk not out onto the ground) right?

^ yea beat the piss out of it!! sounds like you'll be needing another one talk to lev he may have another

Yeah i am going to beat it out of there. Who is lev?

422 post and no knowledge of levnubin? i'm in germany at 12 o'clock on a friday night fucking plastered and know who he is...fuuuuuuuuuuuuck me running dude...i need to get back to oktoberfest for realllzziz.

I hammered it out. And id not break the light itself. I guess it was never removed before so the gasket totally caked into the metal.
