Instructions for Removing the Rear Light

Model: Hyundai Sonata - Years 2004-2014
Part: Tail light

To remove the rear light, access the boot and remove the sound-absorbing cover that acts as a cap directly over the light housing; once the cover is removed, unscrew the light fixing nuts and pull it out of its housing by sliding it backwards, as the front has a forked slot that fits onto a specific plastic pin; to refit it, reverse the process, inserting the front part first (ensuring the fork fits onto the pin) and then inserting the retaining pins into the designated holes, tightening the respective fixing nuts.
