Video tutorial

In this video, learn how to replace the rear light on the Ford Focus MK3: open the tailgate and remove a small piece of trim designed specifically for this service. Inside, you will find plastic clips that will help you unscrew the light from the inside, allowing the entire optical unit to come out easily from its housing.

It is important to pull the optical unit towards you and not forward, as there is a step in the bodywork that could break something. Of course, to refit it, follow the reverse procedure.
