This is a terrible procedure for changing signal/reverse bulbs. I don't get what Nissan was thinking other than to deter thieves from stealing the tail lights. If it takes this much effort to get to the bulbs, I might as well pull everything else apart to do sound deading and audio wiring work. O_o Goodness in this hot weather?! ahahh

simota1, would you mind if i was to put the link to your DIY at the beginning of the thread for future people that decided to take their tails off, that way they can be directed to your thread?
