High mount brake light access?

Does anyone have a guide/process for how to get to the high-mount third brake light on the hatch?

So I thought I would go ahead and give a quick description on this in case anyone else wants a quick guide. It's too easy.

The trim panel at the top of the hatch can be removed with a trim tool, give it the usual even pressure and the clips will pop out. Underneath, there are two 10mm bolts to remove, these are holding the outside trim panel that holds the light in place. Bolts out, lower the hatch and work a trim tool under that panel to pop the clips out and gently flip it toward the front of the car. There is molding tape around the front three sides, so you're tearing this off too as you go, and it will need to be replaced when you are wrapping up. Connection plug for the light is tucked into the hatch frame, under a rubber seal. Obviously reinstallation is easy, just replace the molding tape and reassemble everything and get on with your life
