Default 3rd brake light

Ok this has to be an audi thing. I noticed my 3rd brake light was out.Took the light out and noticed the light is formed by a bunch of little lights inside the case. Do i have to replace the whole light strip ?
I look in the owners manual and this light doenst have a separate fuse. Does any body had this problem before ?

Pop the upper and lower clips and unhook the wiring harness. Once you get it out of the car pop the white plastic peice off the back (2 clips) and you will see the row of lights. Pull them all out and toss em. Go to the dealership, they cost about $1 a peice and replace them all. If some work and some dont you want to replace all of them regardless. Reverse for installation. Good luck.
