How do you replace a rear brake light in a 2008 Prius?

To replace the rear brake light in a 2008 Prius, start by opening the rear hatch and removing the plastic cover or panel on the interior side of the tail light assembly. Next, locate the brake light bulb socket, twist it counterclockwise to remove it, and take out the old bulb. Insert the new bulb into the socket, reattach it by twisting it clockwise, and then replace the cover or panel to finish the installation. Always test the new bulb to ensure it's working properly before closing everything up.
