Nice instructions in the owners manual (with drawings) if you have it.

Grab the plastic housing and shove it to the left, this will unhook the right side. then unhook the left side and pull the housing toward the front of the car. At this point the length of the wires will stop you, so give the bulb holder a 1/8 turn and you can now see the bulb. Pull it out , push a new one in, and it goes back together just the same. It literally takes 2 minutes.

Haha, I just replaced mine yesterday.

1. Open the trunk
2. Push the 2 black tabs under the brake light towards the middle to release
3. Go into the back seat and pull the brake light assembly towards you
4. Put your right hand under the bulb and twist it 45 deg. counter clockwise and pull it out
5. Replace the bulb
6. Put the bulb back and twist it 45 deg clockwise
7. Snap the assembly back down
