This video shows how to remove the rear light on the Ford Explorer, useful if you need to replace a bulb or the light itself. To do this, open the tailgate, remove the two plastic caps with a flat-head screwdriver, and unscrew the bolts underneath using an 8mm socket.

At this point, grasp the light and pull it towards you, disengaging it from the bodywork. If you need to replace a bulb, simply turn the bulb holder counterclockwise to remove it from the housing.

Finally, follow the reverse procedure to reassemble everything.
