I need to change the bulb in the left tail light of my 1996 Toyota camry.

Can someone help me out with this, i do not have a manual and am sure it is very easy.

Thanks

Access to the tailight is through your trunk. You should see several plastic disc holding down the trunk liner. In your case I think the disc has a phillips screw head but it only requires a half turn. It is really a screw, it is a cam. Once you remove several of these disc you should see the light asembly. Rotate the plastic bulb holder 1/4 turn to the left. Out it comes.
Good luck

Wrong. do as said above, but the light assy is bolted to the tail panel. 2 small 8mm nuts need removing. pull, then bump the tail light assy to the side. (2 tabs hold it on the sides)
THEN you can twist out the burnt bulb socket.
