To replace the third brake light bulb on the Volkswagen Golf, use a tool to pry off the ceiling light completely from its housing: once it is removed, you can disconnect the connector attached to the ceiling light and extract the LEDs inside by unscrewing the screws that hold them in place. After replacing the LEDs with new spare parts, reconnect the ceiling light to the appropriate connectors and insert it back into its housing at the rear.
