How do you replace the number plate light bulb in a Kia Ceed? This video shows how to replace the damaged bulb. Open the boot lid, and remove the internal plastic cover.

Use a screwdriver to remove the screws securing the light unit located in the tailgate above the car's number plate. Once the transparent light unit is removed, extract the bulb using your fingers.

Install the new bulb in the holder (same size and voltage), and reassemble the light unit onto the tailgate. Finally, test the correct operation of the previously installed bulb.
