A working brake light is not only essential for the safety of a motor vehicle, but it is also the law. This guide is designed for changing a 2011-2015 KIA Optima’s rear brake light. Follow the instructions carefully as the process deals with glass and electricity. Be absolutely sure to remove the battery connector before changing the bulb and to handle the replacement with latex gloves.

Perfect instructions. Very easy and fast.
Step 5: Twist the dead bulb counter clockwise to unlock it from the holder.
Is incorrect for at least the Canadian model of the Kia Optima. The brake light bulb on the drivers side needs to be pushed in and rotated ~30 degrees counter clockwise to be taken out of the grey bulb holder, I suspect the passenger side is the same.
Secondly for Canada, at least at Canadian Tire the bulb to buy is Sylvania LongLife bulb “2357”
I’m not in Canada so I don’t know the difference between Canadian and American but I had to push the bulb in and turn counter-clockwise to remove. But I did purchase both the Sylvania Longlife bulbs 1157A and 2357 but used 1157a.
