How to remove the rear headlight on an Opel Astra? Here’s how to disassemble the headlight and replace the bulbs. Lift the tailgate, remove the cover on the side of the boot, and unscrew the securing screws located at the back of the headlight.

Once the screws are removed, detach the rear headlight from its housing (disconnect the power connectors) and replace the damaged bulbs with new ones (same size and voltage). Refit the headlight with the securing screws: connect the power connectors before mounting the rear headlight.

Test the bulbs installed in your rear headlight.
