ya if i remember right the center plastic piece comes off. you just pull up on it after taking any of the push-in clips out. none of the clips on the part should break. other than that you just take some of the push-in clips out of the carpet to get it out of the way.
let me know if you have any issues.

this is a very easy strait forward removal and re-install,the above posts are correct-remove plastic center..theres 2 clips holding carpet in(one each side) they are the cargo net clips(remove both of them) pull back carpet,diconnect each TL then remove the 3 nuts holding each tail in place(i think its an 8mm deep socket) tail should pop right out.

On the 2007 G35'sis there a way to remove the reflector piece on the inside of the tail lights?, not the one on the inside of the ring, its on the inside brakelights (where all the individual leds form three lines).. I noticed that the older G's didnt have a reflector and illuminate more brighter that the ones on the 2007.

Opening the lights is another story, esp the 06+ ones. I ended up dremeling them open with reinforced cutoff wheels that can cut through metal.
I never noticed that the 03-05 ones were brighter.
