How do I replace rear centre brake light?

[Briangrogan]

My rear centre brake light cracked going over a speed bump, is it difficult to replace?

It's a 2006 2.5si

You need a deep socket to reach the 3 nuts from inside the boot. Very easy to replace, takes less then 2 minutes when I replaced one.

Think the nuts are either 8 mm or 10 mm, but can't remember - so buy a set of deep sockets unless someone else knows the size

More likely to crack slamming the boot. When you fit the replacement tighten the nuts just enough to hold the lamp in. No need to crank them down on the springs or it will just break again in a few months/years
