hello, access to the 3rd brake light is a bit difficult. you need to remove the inside plastic trim that goes around the window because the light is screwed to the body from the inside. i remember it was a difficult job to remove the trim because it doesn't feel that rigid and one could easily break it. hope this helps

sorry to go off topic, but would going to your dealer and get them to replace it under warrenty be less hassle?

Unless already the warranty has run out!

if you do have a rear spoiler (as the topic title suggests), there are 2 screws below the spoiler that can be easily seen. remove these and the brakelight will come off.
