I have a 2011 wagon and I want to open the tail lamps to paint the chrome. I'm wondering if anyone has and could give me some tips. From what I've heard (which is very little) I need to cut them open. I looked at them and had second guesses. If anyone could say yes or no, and tell me where to cut if I need to do so, I'd very much appreciate the help.
I am not sure on that year but for the 05 I took out the headlights and baked them in the oven for 10 mins. This makes the rubber seal go soft and really easy to separate. Then when you put it back together you bake the 2 halves again an the screw them back together. The seal will reharden and you'll be good to go.
