Brake light is here and its much like the R52 version where you have to take out those rear trims and then there is a small plug.

Hello, just came across this, did you ever get it unpluged, should just unclip, might need a little flat head on the side as the clip tab looks broken.

I'm in the same boat. The brake light assembly was easy enough to remove from the car, but I cannot detach the cable for the life of me. It's one of the most frustrating things I've ever come across. Why must Minis be so frustrating to work on. What should be an easy task is made 10 times harder by design, I guess. Would be nice if there was a pic a complete plug with the tab that you mentioned was broken off from the pic above. I'm tempted to just crack the assembly to remove the plug. The light's not working anyway.

Yep the clip is frozen in place or broken, i would crack the old light housing and try to save the plug, then get a new light all together.
If you get the plug out, take a picture and i will try to find the end plug.

First, thanks for the quick reply. I was able to remove the plug, but I had to use a pick tool to do so. I don't know if the plug will still work for a new light assembly, so I'm hoping that you might be able to help me locate another.
This car is a 2014, but only has 24K miles on it. I don't know how long the LED light assemblies are supposed to last, but maybe it was just time for this one to go. I'd like to test the wiring for power before ordering a new assembly, but the holes in the plug are so small. I'm trying to rig something up for that now. I think I have the model for the assembly itself (89078393 ?), but I don't know about the plug (if there's a part number for that. At any rate, here are the pics:

Do you have a better picture or part numbers on that little black plug on the harness side?

Just wanted to follow up. The brake light arrived on Saturday and I installed it within a few minutes. The old plug works just fine and so does the light - back in business. Thanks.

Third brake light / backup light R-57 Base
I've got the same problem with my R57 base convertible.
Light bar needs replacing and a new plug needed. I tried to resurrect the old one a few years back when the plug was froze on the terminals. Now it's time to do it again....hopefully the plug is available now?
It's a 4 prong staggered wire plug. I'm also looking for the wiring diagram to install the new plug. Can't find a color coded diagram in the manual.
The light part number is - 63247255925 ....any idea of the part number of the plug and can you order one for me (ECStuning)?
Thanks, Bill

Yep, just match the pinout. This helps retain those pins so you can slide them in the new slots. They have tiny little tabs.

Then you will need those ^^ Test the plug in the back housing to make sure it fits right, then rewire and insert the new contacts and rubber gaskets.
