VW Passat - 2006 Tail Light Assembly - freeto

Anyone know how to get at the tail light assembly to change the lens cluster? I can remove the panel on the boot, but still cannot remove the cluster- seems to be connected to the body, but cannot find a way to get at it from inside. All the interior panel pins are hidden... What is the best way to get at them? TIA

Remove the nut behind the cover in the boot, Carefully release the cover side from the rear light using the removal wedge ( plastic or wood ), Pry rear light at side out of clip nuts using removal lever, Remove rear light from body opening, Unplug electrical connector at bulb carrier. Much easier if you have the drawing. Post up your email address leaving a couple of spacers in it to avoid phishing and I'll send you the drawing. Regards Peter
