Re: third brake light

Owners manual. If you do not have one, go to Honda site. Download is free. Last time I was working on the arm rest latch of my 2007 Civic, I had taken the broke one off and was putting the inner cover on the underside wondering just how the spring went on the shaft. I am sitting there pondering and my grand son brings up a youtube of a guy putting it on in a video..Holds his iphone over on pause..like this gpaw. Spring winds this way with long leg up and on right side..

Must be a coupe. LED center light. Needs stripped apart and resolder the pins to the board (almost free if you have the time and tools).

Re: third brake light

If the light is the LED type, you have to remove the rear speaker shelf trim to access the light assembly.
