Hi,
has anyone experience in removing the third brake light from the rear window? I like to tint it and therefore i need to remove it temporary, when i have a look to the spare part it seems its just fixed on some rails which are fixed on the glass. I don‘t want to destroy anything so i hope there is someone who already did it.
What i found so far:

I've had it off on my 2020 s60, literally slides off as in the video.

I bought a used third brakelight from a plattform which dissembles crashed car and sell parts of them with nice pictures of the piece of broken dreams.
The brakelight costs 20€ + 10€ shipping, will arrive tomorrow i will tint it and try to assemble in case of problems, tüv or police i can just change em
