How to Remove the Third Brake Light on Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Tail light

Let’s look at removing the third brake light of a Ford Fiesta. Lift the tailgate to access the back and start dismantling the light. Disconnect the cover caps located above the bodywork: use a plastic lever to help remove the caps. Pry in the holes after removing the cover caps. Extract the light once it is free and replace any damaged bulbs with new ones (same size and voltage). After replacing the damaged bulbs or the light itself, prepare to reassemble the light with its components (cover caps for the bodywork).
