  3. Remove the lens.
  4. Remove the trunk compartment light bulb.
    CAUTION:
    • The bulb reaches high temperatures when illuminated. If there is oil or dirt on the surface of the bulb, excessive heat will build up and the life of the bulb will be shortened. When replacing the bulb, hold the metal flange, not the glass.
  5. Install in the reverse order of removal.
