How to replace the parking light bulbs on the Mini Cooper R56?

Model: Mini Mini R56, R57, R55 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Light bulb

Let's see how to replace the position light bulbs on a Mini Cooper R56. To work more comfortably, we will turn the wheels outward to have enough space to open the flap located below the fender, rotating it counterclockwise before removing it. We grab the bulb holder of the position light and rotate it 45 degrees (a quarter turn) counterclockwise to unlock it, then pull it outward. Once the bulb holder is removed, all that remains is to extract the burnt-out bulb and replace it with the new one.
