Default Driver side brake light gone bad...

Just noticed it this weekend. 2004 SC430 with approx 51k. Everything still original. It appeared my drive side brake light went out. Not sure if it's just a bulb or anything with wirings. Are there any 'do-it-yourself' guide that I can follow? I'd like to just purchase a bulb from a dealer and replace it myself.

let me know. Thank you.

I had the same thing happen a few months ago on my 2003. It was just a bulb replacement. The bulb cost less than $10 at the dealer. It was very easy to replace it. Just take the taillight housing off and you'll see what to do.

dumb question... how do you go about taking the housing off? Are there screws I need to get to first? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also did the indicator on your odometer go away after replacement?

Thanks
