Replacing the rear light on a Mini

Model: Mini Mini R50, R52, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Tail light

Is the rear light on the Mini damaged and in need of replacement? Let's see how to proceed. We open the tailgate of the luggage compartment and put it in safety; open the plastic inspection cap (located in the luggage compartment) and unscrew all the screws that block the headlight (equal pieces of measurement and voltage). We detach the lighthouse from its housing with a lever and disconnect the power supply terminals. After removing the damaged headlight, we mount the new headlight in the sheet metal of the car, screw in the clamping screws and close the side compartment of the trunk. Let's check the operation of the bulbs.
