How to replace the rear brake light bulb of the Opel Zafira

Model: Vauxhall Zafira Zafira C, MK 3 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Tail light bulb

To replace the stop light bulb of the right rear headlight, we start by opening the trunk, removing the caps covering the screws with a slotted screwdriver, unscrewing the two screws holding the headlight with a crosshead screwdriver, then applying slight pressure from the outside of the headlight towards the rear to release it from its housing; on the rear side of the headlight, we find 3 bulb holders that need to be unscrewed half a turn to remove them from the headlight assembly, we identify the stop light bulb holder (located at the point of the headlight that extends), unscrew it half a turn and remove it, take the bulb, press and rotate it counterclockwise to remove it (not shown in the video), once the old bulb is removed, take the new bulb, place it on the bulb holder, press and rotate it clockwise to lock it into the bulb holder, insert the bulb holder into its housing and screw it half a turn, reposition the headlight in its housing, screw back the two crosshead screws and reposition the caps covering the screws. Finally, go inside the car, press the brake pedal and check the proper functioning of the bulb.
