As shown in this tutorial, replacing the rear light bulbs on a Jeep Compass is an extremely simple and quick operation. Before proceeding, ensure that the key is not inserted for safety.

Start by opening the boot lid, then locate the two plastic rivets on the inner edge of the light unit and, using a spatula or flat-head screwdriver, remove both. Next, grasp the light unit, pull it towards you, and separate it from the bodywork.

At this point, simply disconnect the connector, replace the faulty bulb, and reassemble everything.
