Replace Rear Light Stop Lens with LED

Model: Mazda Rx 8 MK 1 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Accessory kit

To replace the lens, you only need a screwdriver and a ratchet spanner. To replace the lens, the entire light assembly must be removed. The screws are accessible under the soundproof cover in the boot near the light. After removing the two screws with the ratchet spanner, remove the light by first disconnecting the connector. Once the light is removed, take out the four screws to access the bulb holders. After removing the cover, carefully replace the lens, ensuring the polarity of the wires is correct. Refit the screws of the bulb holders and reposition the light assembly in its housing, reconnecting the relevant connector. Tighten the screws carefully. Perform a functionality test.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
