On my 99 Avalon, you have to access the rear window brake light by removing the sub-woofer grill cover. As you sit in the back seat, facing the rear of the car, use a screw driver to gently pry up each corner of the cover (the two corners closest to you). They should be held in place by a pin/grommet or a x-mas tree type fastener. After you have these two pins up and out of the grommet, pull the grill towards you. This should remove the two "hooks" that hold it in place in the rear. Flip the cover assy over and you will see where the wires for the bulb enter the bulb housing. Twist the housing and pull to remove it from the grill cover. At this point, the bulb should be seen and easily remove. Get a new bulb and insert and reverse the instructions. Not really very hard to do this one.
PS Be careful not to touch or otherwise damage the sub-woofer speaker as it will be more or less exposed after you remove the grill cover.
