Replacing the arrow bulb on a Mini Cooper

Model: Mini Mini R52, R50, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Side marker bulb

Replacing the indicator light bulb of a Mini Cooper. We remove the spotlight from inside the side fender. We remove the spotlight of the license plate light with a plastic lever or with our hands (we push the spotlight to the side). Once the arrow spotlight has been removed, we go to detach the lamp holder, then, we remove the damaged bulb. We mount the new bulb (size and voltage equal). We mount the spotlight in the mudguard sheet by pressing it until the clips automatically lock. We test the operation of the previously mounted bulb. We turn on the instrument panel and insert the arrow.
