I decided to replace the reverse lights on my 2016 Altima with LED bulbs.
Looked online for how to videos and only found instructions for 2013-2015 models. Figured that 2016 is the same...
Removed the tail light and the reverse light is not in there :)

On the 2016-17 the reverse light housing is actually part of the trunk lid.
Need to remove the clips and pull back the lining. Then there are 4 screws that need to be removed from the lens housing.
Unplug the connector going to the bulb and pull the whole thing out.
Then just take out the bulb, replace it, twist it back in...Put back the housing and put back the screws. Plug in the connector and all done.

Very easy to do and easier than removing the tail light which wasn't that difficult either.
