No pics ? no tips

Why's that?

If I remember correctly, I thought you could step on a Big Mac and fit it behind this brake light without any problems.

I belive same as elantra, 2 nuts in the trunk and then about pry it out of its hole, then when reinstalling it cover it with a paper towel as to not scratch the tint and use your bone or a 6 inch black n white to push in the long studs that the nuts go on then your home free................

here

this is the bottom of the rear deck, as you can see the light is screwed in from the bottom,

so dont yank it up with a pry bar.

more pics comming

in the back of the side panel you can see some tabs that hold the side panel to the deck.

here is the slot the tab from above fits

and you need to take out a 14 mil bolt under the side rest of the back seat and the screws accross the trim.

hope this helps some one, and its alot easier to use the sideswiper to get behind it, just not as much fun

Yup, just another fukin rookie.

[Guest Beeline]

just did one. didn't remove anything and got it behind the light. no problem.

Much easier than tinting behind a civic 3rd brakelight, but still it's annoying Hyundai didn't just make it come out simply.

Anyone who hasn't gotten the bulldozer tools yet, get them right away, they're awesome for vehicles like this one...
