Remove trunk liner - undo nuts (about 8) -

That will make the whole license plate mount - including reverse lights - free from the care

The third brake light is attached to the mount thing by four hex screws (if still factory)

There is usually an adhesive tape holding the light on to the mount as well, so when you remove the screws it may take a little effort---

Obviously unplug the light before pulling it off-

I did this the other day, took me about 20 min, once i got the liner out, That can be a pain, if you use a flat head with a old shirt or something on it to help prevent scratching the car- Just slide it under liner behind plastic push things-

Than just put it all back together in same way - pretty easy all in all....

Why does my high mount brake light come on but not my other brake lights?

If you have directional lights, tail lights, and hi - mount brake light that works but no lower brake lights, replace the multi-function switch on the steering column. Order from MONSTER Auto Parts online for about $90.00. Buy from dealer 300-400.00. Parts house 200-300. No need to replace the 4 way flasher even though they do not work. They will when you replace the MultiFunction switch. Good luck!
