How do you replace the rear light of the Opel Astra?

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Tail light

Whether it's simply replacing a light bulb or the entire taillight, the disassembly procedure is the same, as you can see in this video: open the rear hatch, locate and open the inspection compartment in the side carpet towards the taillight, then unscrew the locking nut and push out the entire optical group. Once removed, all that's left is to disconnect the rear connector of the electrical cables that power it and prepare to install the new taillight, following the reverse procedure.
