Let's replace the rear headlight bulbs on a Mercedes A-Class. Open and lift the trunk to access the interior of the cargo area trim.

Remove the cover on the side of the cargo area, unscrew the retaining screws behind the rear headlight, and remove it. Disconnect the bulb holder from the headlight, replace the damaged bulbs with new ones (same voltage and size as the original). Install the headlight back into the body and screw in the retaining screws.

Turn on the headlights and check the operation of the new bulbs installed inside.
