Can anyone give me info on removing the license plate frame and backup light assembly?

I didn't receive one in my car, but the oem license plate frame has difficult to see plastic clips. You should be able to see them in bright light. A flat blade screw driver should release them.

There are a number of TORX screws that secure the back up light assembly. Once they're removed the entire assembly will drop out. The bulbs use twist out motion to remove them.

Is yours #1944?

If so, yours was built just before mine @ #1961.
