Inside the bed, on either side of the tailgate, you'll find a couple of Torx screws on each side.
Remove them, and the tail light assembly will come out, then you can remove the bulb socket from the back and r&r the bulb.

Open the tailgate and remove the screws holding the tail light assy in place. Should be 2 torx head screws. Remove the assembly and remove the wiring going to the assy. On the top and bottom of the assy there should be 2 small bolts. Remove these and the socket assembly will come free of the lens assy. Pull the bulb straight out of the socket.
CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT THE SOCKET ASSY IS WORKING PROPERLY WITH A NEW BULB BEFORE ASSEMBLY AS THESE ARE OFTEN TIMES DEFECTIVE. IF IT WORKS, GOOD, IF NOT, THE SOCKET ASSY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.
You can get a new assy from Dorman available from most after market suppliers.
