I was able to change my license plate lights so if anyone out there needs help just ask. I still don't know how to get to the side marker lights under the side view mirrors though

To get to the puddle lights on the side mirror....
-Use a flat screw driver wraped in a terry towel. Gently pop off the mirror from the bottom. Only the bottom portion will come loose, and will allow you to have room underneath. Then take the flat screw driver and push down on the tab inside holding the plastic cover of the puddle light. It should pop out with a lil elbow grease. Just reverse to put everything back together. Its a 194 wedge bulb :thumb:

to change the license plate bulbs you need to have a flathead and phillips screwdriver. first pry off all of the little black plastic screws holding the trunk cover on, there should be 4 or 5 of them total I think, including the ones under the cover for the inner tail lights, then use a phillips screwdriver and unscrew the two bolts holding the plastic "pull" handle in place. then you need to take the trunk light off by using a flathead screwdriver and sliding it under the plastic on the right side and pushing the metal piece holding the light in. once that is finished, use the flathead screwdriver to press the three plastic tabs holding the plastic outer rim of the trunk release handle, one on the left side, front, and right side, there is also another tab on the back but once you get the first three it should pop off. once the plastic rim is off, there is another bolt that you need to unscrew with a phillips screwdriver to get the whole trunk release handle off. with all of these things removed, you should now be able to see where the bulbs are located
