It has happened on more than one occassion that cars are sent with a broken car at the other end. The idea of the taillight is to prevent that from occurring during night time races. Even though it may only help during darkness, it is easier to insist that it be there working for all races then try to determine and manage what hours or conditions would require a light.

1994 Chevy S10 tail light replacement?

First, open the gate to the truck box. There will be 2 screws that need to be taken out for each tail light, located where the truck box gate latch catches the sides of the truck box on each side of the vehicle and about 5 inches below the latch connection. After removing the 4 screws, the tail light covers can be removed by gently pulling toward the back of the vehicle. The tail light covers are connected to the truck, so be careful not to break any connections or wires. When the tail lights covers are loose, twist to unlock each tail light housing from the tail light cover. Pull out the tail light from its socket, replace with a new bulb, lock the tail light housing and socket in to the tail light cover. Finally, put the tail light cover back into place and replace both of the screws which secure the tail light cover into its housing.
