Let's see how to change the reverse light bulb on the Alfa Romeo 147: you will need a 10 mm spanner. There are two bolts, one towards the outer side of the headlamp, which allow you to remove it. In this specific case, the bulb was missing, but in all other cases, extract the bulb holder and remove the burnt-out bulb.

Replace it with a new one, remembering never to touch the bulb with bare hands, unless you want to shorten the life of the bulb itself. Position it in the bulb holder, securing it with its screw.

Reattach the connector and replace the headlamp with its two bolts.
