Where is the trunk light 2005 jetta?

When standing behind the car with the trunk open, the light is underneath the left side. You need to stick your head in there and look up. It's a small (1"x2") plastic lense. Pop that out and you can unplug the light assembly from the wire connector. As with many items on German cars, it is needlessly complicated and overengineered. (great for engines and transmissions, not so great for light bulbs...)
