    Default Vz ute changing brake light...Tub liner?

    Hey guys just a quick one.
    I need to change the bulb in my rear brake light and it seems like i need to remove the tub liner. Is this true because i have a toolbox bolted down though it and it would make it quite inconvenient to take it out. Is there any possible way to remove the brake light without taking out the whole tub liner?
    Thankyou.

    Can anyone confirm this? Can i drill through the tub liner to expose the screws and loosen them that way?

    Nope, the liner needs to be pulled back. Not the whole thing mind you, should just be able to lever or bend one side of the liner out to get to the panel that covers the back of the light.

    Where is your toolbox? front or back of the tray?

    Check out the photos here, you will see a big panel that goes back almost to the wheel arch that has about 16 screws in it. That's the one you need to remove and there is no possible way of getting access unless you remove it.
