Tail light bulb replacement
I have a burnt out tail light - not brake - how do I remove the red lens? There is a bezel around the lens which, I'm guessing, is hiding screws.
How do I remove this bezel and have it in a condition which makes it reuseable. I'm hoping it's just a bulb and the
whole unit doesn't require replacement. Truck's a 2000 Ram 2500 4x4 V-10 ( know engine doesn't make a difference, I just like saying V10.
Thanks, Chad

Open the tailgate. I think there are a couple screws that hold it in.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove screws from tail lamp and separate tail
lamp from cargo box (Fig. 10).
RETAINING

Couple little star screws in the tailgate seam, then pull firmly to loosen assembly. (It may sound like it's breaking). It will hang from the light bulb socket until disconnected. To install, line up the studs and push firmly to seat them. Install screws.
