In this video we can see how to replace the reverse light bulb on an Audi A3 8V: on this model, the headlight is divided into two halves, one part remains on the body of the car, while the other half is located on the tailgate that is lifted. Right in this location, we find the reverse light, on the left side.

We lift it, and see that on the back of the headlight group, there is a small door. We open it using a lever, and here we disconnect the electrical connector, a very visible yellow color, and remove the reverse light bulb.
