high mount brake lamp and the rear package trim. Light escapes because the lip on the lamp body is bent upward. Sponge material has been added to
prevent the light from leaking into the passenger compartment. If you encounter a customer complaint, install a countermeasure part (protector)
according to the repair procedure.
