Unhappy Changing tail lights

Can anyone tell me how to change the tail lights on a 1996 Aspire. I have no idea and have found no one who has an idea. The last time I took it to the dealer where the car was bought they didn't even remember the model. I need help before I get a ticket.

NO Prob

Ok this is simple. Take out the back paneling of the hatch the speaks covers have to come off, and all those dumb little plastic pull things, then just yank it off it'll snap but it doesnt break, just becuase there are internal plugs in the plastic that go into the sheet meatl. Then you will see teo screws, on on top of the other completely oposite of the tail light, then the tail light will almost fall out, and you can fix the bulbs!

there's an easier way for anyone else, just poen the rear deck and you'll see the screws that hold the black plastic peice on un screw those and slide the tail lights off. Open them up by removing screws and change the bulbs.
