How to replace the rear headlight bulbs of the Audi A6

Model: Audi A6 MK 3, C6 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Tail light bulb

Today we will see the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the rear taillight and its bulbs of the Audi A6. First, we open the rear hatch of the trunk and start unscrewing the internal screw of the taillight, disconnecting the electrical connector of the lights to remove it from the outside; then we separate the bulb holder from the light fixture, thus accessing the stop lights, as shown in the video. At this point, we replace any faulty bulbs with new ones, or the entire rear light; we fix it properly and check the operation of the stop lights.
