The rear light consists of two parts, one attached to the bodywork and the other to the boot lid. If you need to replace a bulb located in the part of the light fixed to the boot lid, open the lid, remove the pressure clips from the internal trim panel of the boot lid by first extracting the pegs and then the entire clip.

Once the panel is removed, you can access the light and detach the bulb holder by rotating it anti-clockwise by about ninety degrees.

Then extract the bulb and replace it with a new one. Before repositioning the bulb holder, check the correct operation of the bulb.
