Arrow Replacing taillight bulb - how to get to it?

I've got a taillight bulb that needs replacement - standard bulb (2002), not the LED of course. Does anyone have a shop manual that details how to remove the trim panels - and especially the little button style fasteners that hold them? If there's photos, it would be a bonus! I just don't want to damage anything...

Owner's manual just says 'go to the dealer' (and I did do a search of existing posts already, sorry if I missed something).

Thanks!

Thanks very much rominl - pics are just what I needed. My query apparantly didn't accomodate 'tail<space>light' but should have.

Since it's a bit involved, thinking that while I'm in there it would be appealing to swap the bulb with an LED replacement unit; not the same bang as the '06 my coworker drives but different nonetheless. Since you were interested in PearlPower's thread about it, do you have any thoughts?
