This brief tutorial illustrates how to replace the dashboard light bulbs in an Opel Astra. First, use a small flathead screwdriver to detach the clips securing the black panel next to the light glass.

Now, remove the glass itself using the same technique as for the black panel (release the small clips with the screwdriver). Extract the bulb to be replaced with your fingers and position the new one: insert it from the angle indicated in the video.

After testing its functionality, refit the small black cover and the glass.
