One of the bulbs has blown in my 3rd brake light (high level). Can anyone give me advice as to how to replace the bulbs - there does not seem to be an obvious solution.

I recently did this job myself using a 911 cd repair manual for instructions to remove spoiler- I replaced the bulbs with ones I ordered from a local auto electrician-hella don't sell them seperately-not fair really! I had to use 1.12W bulbs as replacement 1.4W are impossible to source- The light emitted is the same with only a slight change of reflection of light, but looks good- trust me I'm fussy about things like that!! They came from a company called CAR GO and cost 30p a piece, which is somewhat cheaper than a replacement light at £85 +vat from an independent specialist. It's a simple job and took me about an hour from start to finish- If you want repair manual pages on removing the spoiler send me you email address and I'll forward them on to you... Good luck!
