Before you begin, open the boot of your Ford Focus. Start by unscrewing the screws securing the rear light.

Next, pull the light out of its housing. By doing this, you will access the back of the blown bulb.

Now, rotate the base of the bulb anti-clockwise to remove it from the rear light. At this point, unclip and remove the bulb itself, completing the disassembly.

To fit the new bulb, follow these steps in reverse, and the replacement will be complete.
