How do you change a brake light?

My husband is having a problem changing the brake light in my 2003 Mitsubish lancer. There is some shield over the light that he can't figure out how to get off. Does anyone know who to take this off to get to the light?How do you change a brake light?
You go into the light fixture from the back, not the front.

He needs to open the trunk and go to the side where the light is.

The carpet and inner paneling is designed to lift away and will expose the back of the light fixture. He has to find the correct light and it should be a simple twist to get the bulb out. He can then unplug and replace it.How do you change a brake light?
It will be in the owners manual. Usally from the back you turn the bulb from the back and it comes out.How do you change a brake light?

I have a 2002 mitsu eclipse and really the way to get it off would be to remove the interior body pannel (check for all screws and attachments with out screws otherwise you can do damage putting it back on... gah i still need to fix that) but remove it from the inside out is the best way.How do you change a brake light?
You can't change a brake light unless it wants to change.

You change them from inside the car not outside.
