Default rear stop bulbs

Hey kids,

Quick question, one of my stop lights has blown and having a wondeful EL I have to remove the rear light asembly to replace the bulb... YA!

Anyway, worked out where the two screws are near the boot, however I can't seem to find how the side of the assembly attaches to the car (quarter panel), there's obviously a screw or a bolt or something there, but I don't want to just yank it off and break it...

Anyone that could tell me the bolt/screw/clip that needs to be removed would be a great help... cheers guys

Glad you got it sorted. I've bought globes from Ford before though, and it didn't cost $75.
