Any parts house will have the bulb in stock
You'll need to get to the bulb thru the trunk, kind of twist yourself around so you can look up under the rear deck, the bulb holder is a twist out type..try to remember it's relationship cause the slots and tabs are different size.
Best of luck I hope this helps you

Directly under the Third Brake Lamp, accessed from the trunk; is the point at which the bulb can be replaced. If you lie on your back and look at the panel just in front of the trunk lid: you'll note an oval hole thru which you can see the lamp bulb socket. It releases by turning it 1/4 turn counter-clockwise.
It requires a #7440 bulb (available at DeathZone Auto Parts Stores (or any similar vendor)
