I have a Nissan Sentra 2006 and the brake light. I know this is silly, but I can't figure out how to reach the bulb to fix it because the directions are a bit unclear in the booklet. Can you explain how you open up the light and the exact type of bulb needed to fix the car?

From inside the trunk, remove the carpet near the rear of the light assembly. There are bolts that hold the assembly in place (they look like wing nuts). Remove them and the light assembly will come out to access the lights bulbs.

Let me know if you get it.
