This guide shows how to remove the rear light of the BMW X1. To complete this operation, open the trunk and remove the trim panel on the side of the light to be removed. At this point, use a wrench to unscrew the three small mounting bolts of the housing.

From the outside of the vehicle, carefully pull out the assembly without pulling too hard. Disconnect the electrical connector before finishing the removal process.

Reassembly is done in the same way, following the steps in reverse. Once the light is reinstalled, check its proper functioning before hitting the road.
