I was always under the impression that to change the bulb in the rear parcel tray brake light, you need to attack it from the top of the parcel tray by pushing the plastic housing towards the rear windscreen and then lifting it up from the rear of the housing away from the parcel shelf.

Hope this helps !

It's done from inside the cabin. Push the brakelight housing forwards and it'll just unclip.

You can sandwich some foam or cardboard between the brake light and the parcel shelf when you put it back together, it'll help dampen some of the rattles :)
