    You have to unscrew it from inside the boot but don't think you can just change the bulb not 100%

    High Level Stop Light

    Information Taken from Haynes Owners Workshop Manual...

    The High Level Stop Light is an LED unit if defective, the complete assembly must be renewed as described...

    Undo the 3 Torx Securing Screws and remove the light from the tailgate...Disconnect the wiring plug as the unit is withdrawn...

    On Models 07/2004 with a rear spoiler, It is necessary to partially remove the spoiler to provide sufficient clearance for removing the light...
    Spoiler removal is best entrusted to a bodywork specialist.

    Fit the New Light using the reversal of the removal procedure...

    Here's a Handy website to have if your looking for parts... www.realoem.com/bmw/index.do

    Hope this Helps You....
