Replacing the left rear light bulb on a Nissan Qashqai is a very simple task that can be easily done independently. Start by removing the clips and unscrewing the screws on the closure handle; begin with the clips on the sides to remove the tailgate cover.

Remove the three connectors from the bulb holder and unscrew the three bolts around the perimeter of the light. Next, unscrew the two nuts to extract the light from its housing.

Insert the new bulb and reattach the light cover. Reinsert the light into its housing and connect the connectors.

Finish the replacement by reattaching the tailgate panel.
