How to replace the rear headlight bulb of a BMW 3 Series?

Model: BMW Serie 3 E91, E90, E92 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Tail light bulb

To replace the rear headlight bulb of a BMW 3 Series, follow these steps. Start by opening the rear hood of the car. Find the bulb compartment behind the rear headlight, usually accessible from inside the trunk, by unclipping the side cover. Rotate the bulb holder in the indicated direction to unlock it and remove it from the headlight. Once the bulb holder is removed, you can take out the old bulb and replace it with a new one, making sure it is the same size and type. Make sure the bulb is inserted correctly into the bulb holder. Reinsert the bulb holder into its housing in the headlight and rotate it in the opposite direction to lock it in place. Make sure it is securely fastened and there are no loose parts. Close the rear hood and check that the new bulb works properly by turning on the car's rear lights.
