Suzuki: 99 Chevy Tracker 3 door, bright flashlight, chevy tracker

Question
Hi David,
I just bought this rig, and love it. I read your disclaimer
but the other experts either are not familiar with this model or are on vacation for a year,so I hope you can help.
I need to replace the 3rd (high) brake light on the stalk behind the spare, but I'm afraid to break the lens and the screws on the back don't seem to be a factor.  Also need to replace a license plate bulb. Can you advise? Thanks a million.  Dave

Answer
Try unscrewing the screws, and then tapping on them with a screwdriver handle, or a small hammer.  Failing that, get a small bright flashlight, and look at the lens, and see if there are any lock tabs visible.  On the license plate light, frequently, the bulb and holder are fastened from beneath, and release with a quarter turn.  Mostly, wiggle, and twist short of violence sufficient to break it, and you will eventually stumble on the solution.  It works for us "pros".....
