Video tutorial

In this video tutorial, you will see how to replace the rear light bulb on the Opel Zafira. The first step is to remove the light unit; inside the boot, you will find an inspection hatch, where you can see a screw that needs to be removed.

Before doing this, pull off the inspection hatch by applying slight pressure, then unscrew the Torx screw (T25). Now, you need to remove the plastic cover. Using a 17 mm spanner, loosen the clips (as shown in the video).

The rear light will now come out of its housing; disconnect the electrical cables. Unclip the bulb holder and replace the bulbs with new ones.

Reassemble all components in reverse order.
