STi 2008 How to remove tail lights?

Hey i-club i got my red vinyls overlay for my tail lights, but the problem is... I CANT REMOVE MY TAIL LIGHTS! There are two visible bolts that screw into the lights that I can remove and a plastic plate to remove the wiring to the lights. How do I remove my lights?!! It looks as if there is some strong 3m tape holding in the lights or non visible screws?


Here are some pictures that you can see for yourself
