Default How to remove reverse light cover?

Wasn't able to do a forum search so I apologize if this is a repost.

Does anybody know how to remove the reverse light cover on the back bumper?
I can't see any screws and I'm a little scared to pry it off.

eh?

reverse light cover?

you mean the combo light where the backup lights and turn signals are?

that comes off from the back, what are you trying to do?

if your changing the bulb, you remove the tail light, pop off the 3 caps, and use a 10mm wrench to take the screws out.

then there are 2 "things" like rods that grab, going into the car from the side. so pull the tail light off to the side of the car, easier if you grab the bottom corner at the back side of the tail light, and pull away. youll feel it pop loose, then again for the top one.

from there, theres a hole you can stick your arm down in to pull out the bulb sockets and do that stuff.

if you want to remove it altogether. not sure if you can without taking the bumper off.

Thanks.

I'm just putting on a backup sensor. I've got it on the tail light right now, but it would give better info if it was on the reverse light (the tail light angles up and the reverse light is straight up)

Ideally, it would be better if I could remove the whole lens.
