Replacing Rear Headlight Bulb

Model: Audi A4 B7 - Years 2004-2008
Part: Tail light bulb

To replace the rear headlight bulb, you need to remove the headlight assembly: open the trunk and locate the circular carpeted cover next to the light. Open the cover and remove the screw underneath, also taking out the plastic bushing. Then, rotate the inner edge of the headlight outward to extract it from its housing. Disconnect the power connector, release the bulb holder by pressing on the locking tabs, and replace the bulbs, which have a bayonet-type fitting: press and twist. Reverse the steps for installation and check for proper operation.
