Does anyone have an experience in replacing 3rd brake light? How do you get the window sprinkler off?

I suspected that I have to remove trim, but how take off upper piece??? remove all??? I saw just two screws in lower piece.

I think you have to have window glue. To glue them back

it is a glue use for windshield or when changing the rear view mirror.
or slide your fingers and turn the bulb

I just had my 3rd light replaced. Was going to do it myself but elected not to when I saw the trim had to come off and not having the tools. I watch the dealer do and he made it look easy, with the right tools. I might mention the third light also has an adhesive around it's perimeter for moisture prevention. My comprehensive insurance took care of it since it was parked and the garage door come down right on the windshield washer nozzle cracking the lens.
