Default Trying to remove the bazooka subwoofer

Hey guys I'm on a little bit of a quest. Just got the TYC LED tail lights and went to go put them in and i found that i couldn't get the thing to move. I moved some things around and i found a little screw just underneath it. I don't know if thats the only thing holding it in there but it feels like its on some sorta hinge or something. Please get back to me...really wanna put those tail lights in!

You need to remove your rear bumper to install the tail lights.

inside you'll find two nuts.

You have to remove the sub from the enclosure. Inside, there are two nuts that have to be removed.

The rear doesn't have to come off all of the way. Just undo the area right around the lights.

I don't remember any screws...yes, the bumper is 'tabbed in' just give it a light tug and it should pop out.

Re-installing the Bazooka can be a pain due to the angle of the bolts that hold it in place (or my dealership did it weird). Just take your time and try not to get too mad at it.

Just a heads up.
