Post Brake light bulb replacement

Does anyone have any advice for replacing a brake bulb in a '00 explorer? I don't see where you can get to it from the inside, so I assume the whole <a href="http://motorhaven.autoanything.com/">taillight</a> must be taken off to change a bulb. There are two screws at the top, which I removed, but the <a href="http://motorhaven.autoanything.com/">taillight</a> will not freely come out, and I don't want to break anything. Is there something else holding it in, perhaps underneath? Thanks...

no you anly have to take out the 2 screws and then just pull it mite seem kinda hard but keep pulling and you won't brake anything now about the light itself just go to walmart and pick up a set of bulbs that look just like it but make sure it has two filaments one for brake lights and one for <a href="http://motorhaven.autoanything.com/">parking light</a>s and that sould be it
