Hi,
I have a 2002 Elantra GT 4 door. One of my brake light bulbs burnt out. I
opened the access cover inside the trunk and I'm not sure what to do next.
Should I unscrew the 4 nuts that stick out? I would appreciate any help or
suggestions. Thanks.

There are three 8mm nuts you must remove. In the spot where there might
have been a fourth nut, there's a plastic nipple. After removing the
nuts, you may need to give the nipple a whack with a small hammer or
something similar to get the tail lamp to come loose. There's a metal rod
which snaps into the nipple from the outside and doesn't like to come back
out.
