Talking How to change the rear bulbs based on o4 Gallardo

It's not as scary as you think and your car came with a replacement bulb. You need a long torx (can't remember the size of hand about t10-t25. Four scews remove the honeycomb beanth the light. Once you remove it there will be two additional larger trox screws in red. Make sure you put your hand behind them because if you don't they will fall inside and may not make it to the bottom. Once you remove these screws (if your hands are small enough) you can slide your hand under the asebly while gently lifting up on it, rotate the light socket out and replace the bulb. The socket is easier to re-install with the wires facing 3 o'clock then rotate down.

Today was day three of owning my car and this was my first repair. You will notice solder conections on the bottm of the bulb. Mine had come apart on one side which made the light work intermittently. The dealer wanted $525 to run a diagnostic and do the repair to my wiring issue.
