How to replace the license plate lights on a Fiat Grande Punto

Model: Fiat Punto 199, MK 3, Punto EVO, Grandepunto - Years 2005-2018
Part: License plate light

In this video, we see how to replace the license plate lights on a Fiat Grande Punto. Actually, the lights work, but the car signals them as if they don't; probably it's a problem with the Can-Bus resistance. So our YouTuber replaces the mounted LEDs with filament "xenon effect" bulbs. You can find them, for example, on Amazon with the code B099X6S3BT, at a price of 14.55 euros for a kit of 2 bulbs. Replacing them is very simple. We just need to push inwards and then downwards, the lever on the license plate light fixture, which comes off easily. We remove the bulb holder outwards, take out the LED bulb and replace it with the filament one. Now we put it back in place and repeat on the other side. We turn the key in the dashboard and see that the error has disappeared, and the light is good.
