If you get the somewhat common problem of the turn signal side circuit boards burning out, you can try the soldering technique discussed in a previous thread or a newer solution using a Mercedes wiring harness to circumvent the circuit board. Or, you can just buy new LED rear lights.

Excellent. Thank you for the fast response. Nice to know I'm not going to have to spend time replacing bulbs that could be spent applying Leatherique or waxing

.
Another bulb that is out is the drivers side license plate illuminating bulb on the liftgate. I haven't searched for any DIY's on here for that yet because it looked to be a fairly easy job.
Thanks again!
