In this video tutorial, you can see how to replace the brake light bulb on a 2020 Kia Sportage by following some simple steps that will allow you to manage your vehicle independently.

Once the cover is removed, unscrew the two cross-head screws, and once unscrewed, gently pull the light back until it is removed from its housing (use both hands for a good grip).
