The license lamp(s) are located in the rear fascia license pocket or the trunk lid applique panel. The lamp(s) light whenever the headlamps or parking lamps are activated.

If the lamp is mounted to the fascia panel:

A.Remove the retaining screws.
B.Remove the socket and change the bulb.

If the lamp is mounted to the trunk lid applique panel, perform the following:

A.Open the trunk and locate the applique harness connector. Detach the connector.
B.Using a small flat-bladed prytool, remove the grommet at the trunk lid.
C.Remove the wing nuts from the applique panel.
D.Remove the applique panel from the trunk link.
E.Remove the light socket(s) and change the bulb(s).

Installation is the reverse of the removal process.
