Third Brake Light Cracked!

So somehow my third brake light is cracked! I have been driving with it cracked for six or so months and I have decided to replace it. *I don't how it cracked. Its almost completely covered by the spoiler?*
I like the black rear light on Moss!
So my question is, is it hard to take out the old light and replace it with the new? Is there any DIY threads on it or anything like that?

Simply open the boot and remove the screws behind the brake light.

You might want to soften up the seal with a hair drier first to make it a tad easier to remove.
