    Put the tailgate down, there will be 2 bolt heads facing the tail light. Pop them out (Can't remember if they're 10mm or philips or both), once both of those bolts are removed, the tail light should pull out. Twist it away from the tailgate gently (DO NOT JUST YANK ON IT, there are alignment tabs that hold it in place!). Unplug the wiring or unscrew the bulbs and the tail light housing is free from the truck.

    These are the bolts I removed to mount the bottle opener. Does that help?
