brake lights - Honda Pilot

How do I get the brake light cover off? The manual says to remove the two screws and pull the assembly straight back. It feels like there is a tab that is holding the assembly in place.

Left, right, or high mount/center brake light?
There's a couple triangle covers to pop off on the high mount.

I Also read the manual which says "Pull straight back ..."

Didn't work.

Sorry about that.

The Right Side Brake light is in question here.

How to remove it ... do I simply pull straight back after unscrewing it from the vehicle - it seems held in by something ...

Yes, pull straight back. There is a detent type of stud located high & to the left (left t/light) that gets dirt on it, making it hard to remove. Remove the two screws inboard & pull straight back.
I use a stiff putty knife or scaper inserted between the "fender" & tail light then tap the scraper toward the rear. Careful, it can pop off & dangle on the wires. Stand with your body against the light when you knock it loose.
