Open the boot by lifting the tailgate, and notice a cover in the centre of it (on the inside, of course). Remove this cover and you will find the bulb for the central third brake light.

Unscrew it from the rear connector and pull out the bulb itself (also unscrewing slightly here). Insert the new bulb and screw it in lightly, then repeat the process with the connector, ensuring the bulb is seated correctly.

Refit the cover and check its proper operation. As you can see, this is a very simple task that anyone can do.
