Replacement tail light bulbs for the 2010, 2011, 2012 & 2013 Camaro models with their part numbers are as follows: Brake & Rear Turn Signal Bulbs # 3157 and Reverse # 5008.

Replacement bulbs for the 2014 and 2015 Camaro model years with their part numbers are as follows: Brake /  Rear Turn Signal # 7443 and Reverse Bulb # 921.

The only tool needed to change the tail light bulbs on a 2014 or 2015 Camaro is a small flathead screwdriver.

To replace the reverse light bulbs in the bumper of a 2010, 2011, 2012 or 2013 Camaro will require a flathead screwdriver, a 7mm socket with a ratcheting wrench and a Torx T15 star bit screwdriver or socket.

Gently pry up the center part of the three fasteners on the plastic access panel covering the top of the tail light housing.

Then pry out the larger outer piece of each pop rivet fastener.

Lift the plastic cover off the top of the tail light assembly and set it aside in a safe place.

There are two combination brake and turn signal bulbs on either side of the tail light housing. The reverse light bulb is located in between the two brake and turn signal lights.

(The OEM bulb is a clear 7444 but the 7443 is interchangeable.)

Pull the old reverse bulb straight out of the socket and push in a new # 921 bulb. Re-insert the socket in to the housing and rotate it 1/4 turn clockwise to secure it in place.

Instructions for removing the rear bumper fascia and replacing the reverse light bulb in a 2010-2013 Camaro:

Remove the 3 plastic pop rivet fasteners on the top of each tail light housing access cover. Remove the covers and set them aside in a safe place with the pop rivet fasteners.

Disconnect the wire harnesses for both tail light housings.

Remove the 7mm bolt inside the wheel well liner located just above the tire on each side of the vehicle by turning them counterclockwise.

Remove the 3 screws in each wheel well liner behind the rear tire with a Torx T15 star bit screwdriver or a socket bit. The 2014 and 2015 Camaro models have Torx T20 screws. Removing the wheels may make this step easier to complete.

Grasp the sides of the bumper fascia just behind the rear tires. Firmly but carefully pull the sides of the rear fascia straight out towards yourself to release the clips.

Place a towel or large blanket down on the floor to protect the bumper cover.

Then firmly but carefully pull the rear of the bumper cover straight off the back of the car.

You can now easily access the reverse bulb sockets.

Sylvania lists the replacement bulb as being part number 5008 which is similar to the # 1156 bayonet base bulb.

A Camaro forum member mentioned that the replacement part number is 12184. Another option is to replace the housings with the Oracle LED units from AAC (Advanced Automotive Concepts).

Rotate the socket 1/4 turn counterclockwise before removing it from the assembly.

(The OEM bulb was a clear 7444LL bulb but they are interchangeable with the much easier to find 7443 bulb.)

Rotate the socket 1/4 turn clockwise to lock it in place.

Re-insert the black plastic pop rivet fasteners and the push down the smaller center piece to secure them in place.
