The rear brake like bulb needs to be replaced but the hatch does not open. Is there a way to replace the bulb without opening the hatch?

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.
I hate to say it, but the hatch needs to be opened to access the screws holding the tail light assembly in place. There are only two holding the lens in place.
What is wrong with the hatch that is causing it not to open?
Let me know,
Joe

Hello, I am Danny.
Sorry, unfortunately the hatch has to be open to access the two bolts that holds the assembly in place. I have attached a picture and circled the bolts in red. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.

Thank you very much for answering my question. I was hoping there was a way as the hatch handle does not work and cannot afford to get it fixed.
