Replacing the rear headlamp of the car? Open the boot of the M-Class to access the headlamp and remove it properly. Use a screwdriver to remove the securing screws located at the side of the headlamp.

Disconnect the rear headlamp from its housing once all screws are removed and disconnect the power connectors. Replace the damaged bulbs with new ones (same size and voltage).

Refit the rear headlamp above the car's body, tightening all screws at the side. Get into the vehicle and turn on the operating levers.

Check the operation of the bulbs.
