removing taillights

I am having trouble removing the two corner taillights on an 04 sedan. If anyone has instructions on how to remove them, i would really appreciate it. Do you have to take out the bumper to do it?

if a sedan is anything like a coupe, just unhook the wiring harness then unbolt the 3-4 bolts then it just comes out...there's a foam pad so save that

You have to remove your bumper to change your tail lights on a sedan.

with long skinny arms like me, you just stick your screw driver up from underneath the bumper and remove the screw(s). Then yank them out.

Well first off never let your buddy touch your car again, and for an exhuast I would either go with the Greddy Evo 2 ( Huge canister scrapes a lot) or a Magnaflow. No matter what aftermarket exhuast you get it will scrape but my Magnaflow rarely does. I love the way both sound, Magnaflow is deep, and the Greddy is just clean sounding. Here is my magnaflow set up
