Let’s see how to replace the rear light bulb on a Kia Ceed. In the rear boot, there are small compartments that provide access to the rear lights. Open this compartment using the tip of a flat screwdriver, and with a small spanner, unscrew the bolt that holds the bulb you want to change - check from the other side - carefully remove it and replace it, remembering never to touch the bulb with bare hands, as this can significantly shorten the bulb's lifespan.

Now, insert the new bulb, place the light unit back in its housing, re-screw the closure bolt, and replace the plastic cover. Job done.
