Replacement of the rear headlight bulbs of the Opel Astra

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Tail light bulb

The following instructions will allow us to disassemble and replace the bulbs of the rear light of the Opel Astra. First, we open the rear tailgate of the trunk and start unscrewing the internal screws of the rear light, then disconnecting the electrical connector of the bulbs to remove it; then we separate the bulb holder from the light fixture, replacing any faulty bulbs with new ones (of the correct type and with the same fitting); finally, we reassemble the rear light and make the electrical connection, checking the operation of all the brake lights!
