Today, I will quickly explain how to change the light that illuminates the number plate on a Fiat 500L. Contrary to what many think, it is actually a simple maintenance task. First, get a plastic lever (not metal, as it will scratch) or a small flat screwdriver (also plastic, or cover the tip with insulating tape) and start prying around the lamp, as shown in the video.

With the same tool, locate the spring of the light itself, which is on your left, behind the lamp. Once the spring is pressed, the lamp will come out. Unscrew the connector and then the bulb.
