This guide will provide visual steps on how you can easily replace the right/left bumper taillight using only one 6-1 screwdriver. The steps do not require any special knowledge or advanced preparation to perform the action. Note each step must be done carefully to avoid car paint damage. There is no possible hazard or special warning before starting rolling.
