Tricky taillight

I need to replace the right tailight bulb and I'm having a hard time getting to the bulb itself... I take teh screws off and its still attached on the right side... Im afraid if I force it something will break.. is there a trick to this?

thanks!

After you take off the 2 screws...hit the side of the light housing with your hand. It'll come off...

The side that is attached......its held inplace with plastic pins in a 'grommet' just needs a little coxing to get popped out. - I believe that the pop out will be to the side.
