Very easy. Ok the info I have is for a 00 2.7t but I'm sure its the same for both. Ok go to the trunk open it up. Next look to your left (drivers side) and you should see a door in the wall. Open that little door/hatch and there should be your jack and what not? (was on mine) remove that and stick your head in there looking at the rear tail light (should be easy to see) Then there should be a black rectangular think with wires plugged into it. Grab the clips holding that to the tail light and remove the rectangular piece and on it should be three lights. Change one and your done! Push and turn to remove... Anyway hope this helps!

That is what it looks like behind that amp if you look to the left on the driver side... that black part snaps out and lights are on it. Idk what to do with thoes amps though sorry. Trunk looks sick by the way. what else have you done with the car?

Your trunk looks the same as mine, the entire light assembly (all the lights) should be the balck part. Look or feel for the clip holding this assembly in place. Once the clips are located pull the assembly and change the light which needs changing
