• Q: How to Replace a Tail Light Assembly and Bulbs on 2005 Buick Century?

  A: Start by opening the rear compartment to remove the convenience net from plastic wingnut retainers if present. Proceed by removing the plastic wingnut that is in plain sight at the tail lamp and push the rear compartment trim panel corner to reach the remaining plastic wingnuts. Apply gentle pressure to the tail lamp lens as you remove the other plastic wingnuts. Next step is to remove the tail lamp assembly from the rear body panel after completing wingnut removal. To perform the replacement start by turning the lamp sockets clockwise to separate them from the tail lamp housing and afterward extract the tail lamp housing assembly with its bulbs out from the sockets when required. Start by inserting tail lamp bulbs into their respective sockets before you attach the sockets to the tail lamp housing through clockwise rotation until they become completely seated. Use light force on the lens when attaching the tail lamp assembly to the rear body panel through its plastic wingnut retainers. Affix the tail lamp assembly by using plastic wingnut retainers and reinstall the rear compartment trim panel corner before completing with the remaining tail lamp plastic wingnut retainer. The rear compartment convenience net should be reinstalled on its plastic wingnut retainers prior to sealing the rear compartment.
