I just replaced mine and it's super easy. Get a pair of pliers. Get on the back seat and face the third brake light. With you hand, push the brake light assembly to the left, as far as it will slide. On the right of the brake light you will see a little groove in the carpet. This groove is for your finger to pop the light out, it pops out easily. Then unplug the electrical cord. Take the pliers and gently turn the plastic piece holding the bulb and it will come out of the plastic housing. Be careful when turning because it's plastic and you don't want to damage it. You may have enough strength in your finger to turn the plastic. After you turn and remove the plastic piece holding the bulb, you simply remove the bulb with your finger (it's a Toyota bulb). I took the bulb to the Toyota dealer for a replacement. After replacing the bulb and turning it's plastic holder back in the third brake light assembly, reconnect the electrical plug, then snap the assembly back in place. If you have the bulb ready, you can complete the whole job in 3 minutes. Good Luck!
