The instructions in this guide will show us how to disassemble and replace the bulbs of the rear headlight of the BMW 2 Series. First, we open the rear hatch of the trunk and start unscrewing the screws of the rear light, disconnecting the electrical connector of the bulbs to remove it; then we separate the bulb holder from the light fixture, thus accessing all the bulbs of the rear headlight, as shown in the video.

At this point, we replace any faulty bulbs with new ones, of the right type and with the same attachment; we test the operation of the brake lights.
