So the drivers side brake light (just the "STOP" bulb) is out. I head to the store pick up the right bulb and back to the house to change it out real quick. That's when I noticed this may not be as easy as I thought.

Can't figure out how to get to it to change the bulb...did a search and didn't come up with anything.

Does anybody have any guidance on this? Or a link I can follow

It's an 05 'Vert S

THANKS

 

In the rear of the side panels there is a pop off cover.
Remove the cover.
Put your hand into the access hole.
The light bulb plate pulls out.
Change the bulb.
Reverse process.
It's very easy to do.

 

Thanks for the response however I'm still confused or really stupid. Are the lights & access to them the same for coupes and convertibles? I'm not seeing a light plate just some electrical inputs and black plastic?

 

I am taking it that R52 has same access panel as R50 & 53's.
Open the boot.
On the interior side panels that run front to rear of car.
There should be a panel plate on each side of the car.
Remove the plate, it is plastic.
When the plate is removed, you see a acess hole.
There will be wires running along the bottom of compartment.
Put your arm into the panel.
You should feel the wires going to the tail lights.
All 3 bulbs are attached to a plate.
Grab plate and pull toward the front of car.
Plate and bulbs will pull out to the access hole.
Change bulb.
Hope this helps you.
