Replacement of Rear Number Plate Light

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: License plate light

Locate the lamp holder for the number plate light beneath the bumper.
Using a medium-sized flat screwdriver, press on the side tab of the holder and pull out the lamp holder.
Rotate the lamp holder clockwise to remove the bulb and replace it with a new one (W5W T10 fitting): it is advisable to check its operation before reassembling everything.
Once the new bulb is fitted and its operation verified, reattach the lamp holder to the support and finally the support itself, ensuring that the side tab fits into its slot.
