How to replace the rear bulb of a Mercedes GL450 MK2

Model: Mercedes Gl X166, MK 2 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Light bulb

Replacing a light bulb in a Mercedes car may sometimes not seem easy, but in the case of this 2014 CL450, it turned out to be quite simple. It involves changing a rear bulb, so we will start by opening the trunk; on the sides there are two storage nets, and the shape of the carpet indicates that the panel behind it is removable. To remove it, a plastic spatula would be recommended, but if you don't have one, don't worry: the YouTuber shows us that we can also perform this operation with a simple spoon. We pull the panel towards us and can access the rear lights: we twist and pull the bulb we are interested in towards us and replace it with the new one, remembering that the bulb should not be touched with bare hands. We close the panel and the job is done.
