Any tricks to taking my tail light assembly apart?

Thanks! That's exactly what I've been looking for but couldn't find.

Pretty much. I replaced mine about a month ago. It was a little annoying getting the trunk cover off. Once off though, getting the bulbs replaced was a breeze.

Just got done with it. Quick job.

Only problem was getting the 2 locking screws back in...the 2 holding in the top of the trunk cover. I just pushed them back in real hard. Not sure if thats the way they go but I couldn't figure it out. They didn't quite go in all the way and I heard some plastic stripping, but the pop-out rivets are what really holds it in place, so it should be good.
