Bugs in the tail lights
Like many others, I had bugs in my tails lights. The key word being had. I removed the trunk liner and poped out the brake light bulb. Then I took a shop vac and stuck it over the bulb hole, which happened to fit over the hole like it was made for it, and turned the vacum on and in 1 second all two bugs were sucked out. I did it on the other side with the same results after a few taps to break the bug loose. So there you have it, an easy way to get those darn bugs out

reminds me of the old joke
how many bugs does it take to screw in a light bulb..........
2, but the real question is how did they get in there

When I took out the tail light a while back I noticed that it is not sealed. There is a huge 1/2 hole behind the side markers LEDs. They must have got it that why.

That's nothing..... I discovered a dead spider inside the tail light, and you know what spider does.... Spider webs!! I guess the spider wanted to make a good home there but that dumb bug couldn't find a way out and died there. It took me a few hours to clean up its mess.
