Ok. First gremlin that needs to be fixed IOT pass VA state inspection. the right livens plate bulb is out. Looks to have melted at some point. I'm not sure if this piece can be swapped or not. Can't seem to find it on realoem.
Left side works.
Any ideas?

I found a threat that recommends running wires from the other side and another that said just replace the whole $90 part.
You can buy the new piece and separate the painted piece and install that instead of paying for new paint.

Looks like a good candidate for a junk yard part.Quote:

Hairdryer and a sharpened screwdriver. There are six clips holding it on. Work from the ends into the middle.

Thanks again Justin. I was able to pry one end apart just a bit. I need to get it disconnected from the car so I have an easier spot to work on it. I assume I need to drop the trunk liner IOT get to the wiring connector.Quote:

Got it. Dropped the trunk liner and disconnected the trunk grip mechanism. Heat gun, flat tip and non-marring pry tool did the rest.
