Let's see how to replace the stop/position light bulb at the rear of the Ford Fiesta MK6: it is a dual filament bulb P21/5W. First, open the rear hatch, and on the inner face of the bumper, you will find the light assembly, which is secured by two T25 star screws that are visible and easily accessible.

Unscrew them completely, after which the light will be held in place only by two plastic pins.

Grasp the light assembly and pull it towards you; then, by turning it towards you, you will see the larger bulb holder, which is the one we are interested in. Unlock it by turning it counterclockwise, remove the bulb by turning it a quarter turn, and install the new one, avoiding touching the bulb with your fingers.

Reinstall it in the bulb holder, align the two pins in the holes on the bumper, push the light assembly inward, screw in the two screws, and you’re done.
