How to disassemble the rear light of an Opel Astra?

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

To disassemble the rear light of an Opel Astra, start by opening the trunk and locating the bolts or screws that fasten the light to the bodywork. Remove the internal cover of the trunk that may hide these fastenings. Use a key or a suitable screwdriver to unscrew the bolts or screws. Once the fastenings are removed, gently pull the light outwards to detach it from the bodywork. It may be necessary to apply a light but constant force, being careful not to damage the plastic clips that hold the light in place. Disconnect the electrical connector of the light by pressing the lock and pulling the connector carefully. Once disconnected, you can completely remove the rear light. If you need to replace the light, proceed with the installation of the new light following the steps in reverse order, making sure that all fastenings are tight and that the electrical connector is securely connected.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
