    The hardest part is getting the assembly to slide back and loose. Nothing to grab. I solved it with a couple of strips of duct tape, taped to the lens on the side, and leaving a tail to pull with. Worked like a charm and peeled off clean.

    My 2015 just had two Philips head screws holding the light assembly on. They were on the light itself and not behind a panel. Otherwise very similar. Appreciate the video.

    No quite the same for 2015. _But_ it did point me in the right direction.
    Two screws on the outside.
    Step-Daughter was leaving after coming to visit and I did my usual Ol'-Goat walk around and both brake lights were out.
    Good thing they were accessible from the outside for the inside was packed with baby stuff.
    Cheesy ground in the lamp socket, that's for sure.

    Mine has a third bolt under that black wire cutout. I see the space for it in your video, but you do not have a bolt there. I can't get to it. Am i not going to be able to remove the light?

    Thanks! It worked for me too, except banging on the forward end of the tail light assembly did not dislodge the pins. I had to get a screw driver behind the assemble at the rear and really pry it open. I thought it was going to break the lens or the assembly but it didn't. Since I was already back there I replaced both brake light bulbs on both sides. The second one didn't take long at all.

      Doesn't matter what brand of these days, none of them are easy in my opinion.

    NOT the same for a 2015. No need to go through any interior side pocket. Just undo the two screws beside the assembly, then pull the assembly back towards you to pop it out of the two register plugs. Brake light is the one with green and red wire.

    Okay, I'll admit, I was a little hesitant to use a video by a guy calling himself "Beermaster," but I managed to fix it with your help (and my sister's, because she's stronger than me LOL), so hey, thanks.
    I'd like and subscribe to help your algorithm, but then RUclips would recommend more car videos, and it's... really not a topic I'm into LOL. I just needed to figure out how to fix this before I drive my sis to work tomorrow, because driving on the freeway with a missing turn signal just didn't sound fun at all.
