How to Change the Rear Light Bulbs on a Hyundai I30

Model: Hyundai I30 FD, MK 1 - Years 2007-2012
Part: Tail light

Let's see how to replace the rear light bulbs on a Hyundai I30; open the tailgate and with a small flat screwdriver, open the three access flaps inside the boot, near the light. Using a cross screwdriver, unscrew the screws that secure the light unit to the bodywork. Pull the light outwards, horizontally, to remove it from its housing. Most bulbs are changed by rotating the plastic socket counterclockwise, pulling it out, and then releasing the bulb with a slight pressure and rotation. It is important to remember not to touch the bulb of the new lamp with your fingers, to avoid reducing its lifespan. Reinsert the light into its housing and screw the securing screws back in.
