Replacing High mount stop light?

Hi! I am trying to replace the high mount stop light on my 02 civic but I can't takeout the bulb. I reached it through the trunk but I don't know which way to rotate so, the bulb can come out. If anyone have done it before, let me know how did you replace it?

Open the Honda Civic's trunk and remove the plastic cover over the brake light housing. Unscrew the plastic tab with your hands and pull the cover off of the frame. The plastic tab has raised edges to grip with your fingers.

Pull the brake light housing out of the fitting and locate the burned out brake light. The brake light will be above the reverse light.

Pull the burned out brake light out of the light fixture. Replace the burned-out brake light with the new brake light.

Replace the brake light fixture to the brake light housing. Replace the cover to the frame of the trunk. Replace the plastic screw tab to the cover.

that should be it! good luck
