Stop light on rear shelf

Does anyone have a clue other than taking the whole rear glass out as how to clean that rear inside glass area between the rear glass and the stop light housing......it's a very tight fit....i was thinking maybe if i could find one [an ink blotter and moistened it] to slide between the glass and the housing and then pull it up and down to clean between...... im stumped

How about a thin MF towel folded over a piece of stiff, thick plastic? Sort of a homemade glass master.

not enough room....its about the thickness of an envelope

When they re-did my rear glass tint today, which by the way is an improvement, the soap water they use to wet the inside rear glass dripped down into that tight area and it's driving me crazy to get it out.....

Most GM products are only held in place by a couple screws in the deck. Its the same as removing to replace bulbs. Check the owners manual, but probably best line of attack.

Good idea....... thanks Killr......


P.S. Just checked the manual......nothing about what i need

i'll look under there tomorrow and see if i see anything.....maybe also the housing cover just pops off from inside on the shelf, but i doubt it....

Becareful if you try that putty knife, you wouldn't want to scratch your brand new tint.

I don't think its that hard to take off.
