I'm trying to replace my broken taillight on my civic. I saw the three bolts in the back and figured it would be a simple 10 min swap... not so much. I can figure out what the trick is to swap out the the rear driver side taillight on the body. Any suggestions?

 

There is probably a 4th bolt, possibly a little bit concealed from your line of sight by a piece of metal. Look a little bit harder for a 4th bolt.

 

There may be sticky caulk/weatherstripping stuff holding it to the body even after the bolts are removed. Press on it fairly hard (no worry there, as it's already broken) and see if it comes free.

 

IIRC there was an extra bolt. took me 10 minutes to do.
