Tail Light Removal

Well, the driver side brake light blown, so need to replace the bulb 7443, the tail assembly came out only after some persuasion, found out it was due to rusted locating pin, so cleaned it and applied appropriate lub, hopefully won't attack the plastic part attached to the body.

When I worked on the right side assembly, it wouldn't budge, so I gave it a good yank, it came off, but oh-uh, the pin broke off! So the JB Weld to the rescue, not pretty but it's hidden from view.

So be careful when other members doing this operation, it may not come out easily for some, if the pin rusts or it wouldn't release smoothly.
