Replacing the Third Brake Light on a Chevrolet Cruze

Model: Chevrolet Cruze MK 1, J300 - Years 2009-2015
Part:

Open the boot and remove the two T15 Torx screws that secure the central third brake light from the holes located at the bottom of the bodywork. At this point, obtain a plastic trim tool or a small flathead screwdriver and, sitting in the back seats, remove the cover of the aforementioned central brake light by prying from underneath. Disconnect the connectors and the entire housing will come away. Proceed in reverse for reassembly: connect the connectors to the new brake light you purchased, fit it into place, and then, working from underneath, screw in the two T15 Torx screws.
