How to remove the rear light on BMW E46

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Fuel filter

Let's see how to disassemble and replace the rear light s of a BMW 3 Series E46: open the bonnet of the luggage compartment, remove the cover cloth (as in the video) and with a screwdriver unscrew (with a socket wrench or screwdriver with insert) the nuts clamps placed on the side of the rear light; as soon as the rear light is free from any constraint, we can detach it from the bodywork (disconnect the relative power supply terminals). We replace the damaged bulbs / headlight itself with pieces of the same size and voltage. Finally we go to reassemble the lighthouse. Let's proceed backwards in the assembly operations of the lighthouse with all the parts.
