Replacing the rear light bulbs on a Peugeot 208 is a very simple task that can be done independently, thanks to our short video tutorial. The first step is to open the tailgate and remove the covers on the sides of the panel; these can be removed using a flathead screwdriver.

Next, remove the inner panel of the tailgate. The second step is to use a TM10 key to remove the nut securing the left headlamp and disconnect the two connectors.

Then, push the headlamp outwards and remove it. The third step is to rotate the cap of the rear fog light and remove it to insert a BA15S bulb. Finally, refit the headlamp.

Repeat the same procedure for the right headlamp.
