Trunk LH side behind the trunk panel liner. You will find the Rear Electrical module there. Part number on the brake light relay should be 9441161. You will need some sort of wiring diagram as there are a couple of relays used there with that same part number.

You need to go in through the back of the car inside to get at the panel that hides the access to the bulbs. In a 2001 xc 70 there are two access one on either side of the car. Once inside the panel there is another piece of black type insulation that pulls out and exposes the bulbs for brake, backup and turn signals. If you try and remove the lens cover from outside you will most likely break the lens as it is glued on.

The easiest way to change the switch is by removing the instrument cluster to access the switch. Then you just unplug the switch and remove the 2 screws holding it in place.
