    of course. you would know. you don't own a galant.

    to remove the brake light bulbs in the tails you have to first remove the tails. the bulbs aren't accessible from inside the trunk.

    and btw, its the breaking light, not the blinker (i think it is stupid that they both are red from the covering red blinkers are pointless)

    peel back the carpet. then you will see some 10mm nuts. remove them and the tail just pops out.

    you can remove the bumper if you want, but its totally unnecessary.

    thanks, i need to buy the bulb tomorrow or when ever i feel better and want to drive

    There is also a rod that goes into a tab on each side by the quarterpanel that you need to pop out too. Sometimes it seems like the light assembly doesn't want to move, and it's because this is still locked into place.
