If you pull back the carpet in the trunk directley behind the lens, you should find the mounting screws. Some models only need to have a few plastic wing nuts removed without pulling back the carpet.

BMW's from 82' to 2001 should have a 20 pin connector under the hood. Unscrew the lid and find pins 7 and 19. Short these pins together and turn the key to run, not start. Within 5 to 10 seconds the sensor will reset. Leave the key on, and remove the short. Don't leave them shorted too long, as this will reset the maintenance interal.

How to remove tail light lens on 2000 ford contour SE

Open the trunk. Pull back the trunk lining where it covers the tail light access inside the quarter panel. Remove the lamp sockets for the turn/stop and backup lights, and remove the screws that hold the lens in place. The lens will then pull out from the quarter panel. Installation is the reverse: make sure the rubber gasket is in place properly.
