I FINALLY know how to remove the tail lights on 04+ Accords. I have an 05 Accord, but it's a sedan. Here's the thing. The tail lights are connected by the bumper so you have to take the bumper off. Once you do, there are screws holding the tailights in place by a black metal piece. If you guys take the screws from inside the trunk first, you might wonder why they're not moving...that's the reason. There's a metal piece that's attached to the bumper and you have to take the bumper off. Hope that helps.

No im talking about the 96.. i used to have one..

There is a bolt all the way at the bottom of the lights near the lower part of the car.

Notice teh black thing.. that bolts deep down...
Theres 2 ways to take it off...

1. (*The Proper Way*) Remove the bumper and unscrew it.
2. (*the way i did it*) RIP out the head light and just F**k The bolt on the bottom

pick which ever u like best :)
