How do I get the tail light out on a 2002 ZX2. The manual say remove two screen and then "pop" it lightly to the side of the car to release it. Nothing happend. I don't want to break it. What to do????

Have you got the tail lens assembly out yet? Or is that the part thats troubling you. If you've gotten that out then (should, I haven't changed on in a focus for about a year) you need to twist the harness that holds the bulb counterclockwise and then pull it out.

No, I just want to change the light bulb. I don't want the assembly out. It's not a twist light bulb socket

Well, I guess you could call it the tail light assembly. It's the part with the red curved lense. The manual say pop it to the side of the car but does that mean side as toward the trunk or side as the out side of the car.

outside of the car, be gentle with it and make sure you have all the screws removed

Two screws are out and it's loose but still hangs on. So for the right side hit the entire assebly to the right?

yeah that'd make sense to me
