Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to replace the number plate light bulb of the Opel Zafira B if it burns out. You need to proceed with the replacement as quickly as possible for your safety and to avoid penalties. To do this, position yourself at the rear of the vehicle, open the boot to work more comfortably, and using a flathead screwdriver, lever the retaining clip of the light and remove it from its housing.

Rotate the side lamp holder half a turn and pull it out; you can now remove the old bulb and insert a new W5W bulb, place the lamp holder back into the light and rotate it into position. Reinsert the light into its housing, securing it by clicking the clip back in place.
