I used a piece of duct tape on a wire....

The light housing only takes about 5 min to take out though

no, its actually reverse. you needa take off the taillights to take off the bumper.

to get the taillights off, just pull out the plastic cover in the trunk, and then the carpet lining. there are 4 connector plugs to unplug and 2 nuts to unscrew. then you can take it out.
