How to replace the rear light bulb on a Fiat Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Tail light bulb

Before we can start, we will have to go to open the tailgate of the trunk of our Fiat Punto. So let's start by removing the top cover of the trunk, unhooking the two cords, and then simply extracting it. After that, we will have to move the side carpet in correspondence of the headlight, thus reaching the bolts that secure the headlight to the car. We then proceed with unscrewing and removing these bolts, and then disconnecting the pins of the light. At this point, we can go and remove the light from the car, thus reaching the rear cover of the bulbs, fixed by screws. We will therefore have to unscrew and remove these screws, and then remove the rear cover, and we will have reached the burned out bulb. To disassemble the bulb we will simply have to extract it, and we will have finished the disassembly. To mount the new bulb and close the headlight, we will simply have to repeat these steps in reverse, and we will have finished the replacement.
