First open your trunk.. Second look at the screw. Third tighten if needed.. Forth close trunk..

LOL!

you left out "pop out the plastic cover (in the trunk)" so you can see the back of the light assembly.

Yeah, it looks like you didn't tighten a crew all the way down or you totallt left one out. Also double check the seating of the light. For some reason I could not get mine to line up when I did them. After screwing with it for like an hour or two I just went and got a beer. When I came back it just popped right in like it was a wet whore on Friday night. Go figure...maybe it was the alcohol. LOL

No.

The screw that holds your lens in goes from the body of the car into the brake light assembly, and you get to it in the method that John666 posted. If it's missing a screw, you just need to add a screw. Removing the brake light assembly shouldn't be necessary at all. If it's something different than what I'm describing, please take another picture and post it.
