Car Forum / Oldsmobile Cars / June 2005Alero right-side brake light out
How does one get into the tail light assembly so that they can replace the bulb? It seems that there are two or three plastic screws behind the tail light - do these hold the assembly in place, and is it as simple of a matter as unscrewing those screws? I just want to be certain before I start - I am always worried that I'll mess things up worse than if I'd done nothing at all. :-) Document ID# 746301 2000 Oldsmobile Alero -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tail Lamp Assembly and /or Backup, Sidemarker, Stop, Turn Signal Bulb Replacement Oldsmobile Removal Procedure Pull back the rear compartment trim.
