Focus Turnier - cannot remove tailight on trunk to change bulb
Hello!
The car is Ford Focus mk3 Turnier 2012 (wagon), which has a burnt taillight bulb (inner light, on the trunk). I opened the trunk, took off the plastic cover, took away the only nut that is holding the light but the light doesn't come off. From Mesteru' Dexter video (HERE) I found that you have to press to the electric connector and watch the lights corner not to break it.
Here is the picture with an arrow showing what bulb is broken:
Here is a picture showing where the light is stuck:
In the video the guy is saying that you have to use plastic prying tool in order to get that light off, but I am afraid this will scratch the paint. Really stupid construction...
Picture:
So my question is - is there any trick to get off the light or sould I really have to use plastic prying tool / screwdriver in order the get the light off and change the driving light bulb?
