Open the hatch, and you'll see 2 or 3 bolts around the perimeter of the taillights. Undo those and they'll pop right off.

After you remove the bolts, you sort of have to pull it out and slightly upwards at the same time, just don't do it too hard. There is a little tab on the bottom of the tail light that goes into a little rubber seal looking thing. That's the hardest part of taking the tail light on/off. Not hard, just the hardest part.
