Unscrew the two screws, and pull the lens off of tailight assy. If it has been on there for a long time, you may need to pry VERY gently to remove the lens. Good luck, Gerry

It's held in there by a spring clip on one side. The clip is about 1/4" wide. If you push it in the direction away from the lens, it will free it. In fact, the best way to get it out is to use a flat-bladed screwdriver to pry the OTHER side out. The prying action presses the spring clip enough that the whole thing pops out. It should happen easily.
