Normally accessed from the back shelf. It slides left or right to unlatch the cover. You may have LED bulbs in the unit, in which case the whole strip have to be replaced.

Either you should be able to access the bulbs from inside the boot after removing the interior carpet/plastic or there'll be screws when you pop the boot holding it on one side then the other side of it should just pop out of grommets/clips.
You cannot just "compress" there rear brake pistons, they have to be de-adjusted because the parking brake must reset them to take up play in that system. A special tool is required to reset the piston.
you will need an abs block reset tool, works slightly different from the old c-clamp trick, but to verify, you are replacing the pads and need to reset the caliper?
hi from uk most rear brake calipers have auto adjust mechanism and yours may be the same as on uk models whereas to compress the piston back into caliper to facilitate fitting new pads ? you have to both press and rotate piston and this sends piston back on the screw auto adjuster you will notice that piston has a couple of slots on its head ? this is there for enabling screw back having said this there is a rear caliper piston compress tool that does this job and the cheapest tool and good quality is made by draper tools and costs approx £10 in uk but can be obtained at any good auto stores and has instructions on use well worth the investment ? just one tip pistons normally screw back clockwise however! on fiats? the nearside screws anticlockwise so just observe that piston is going back when rotating c/wise if not you can fit a 3/8" drive extension and t bar to the rotator boss and using pressure ?turn piston a/clockwise hope this helps one word of advice !make sure you bleed brakes afterwards to clear out dirty fluid untill clean fluid shows this will improve brake pedal best wishes from uk
