When you notice that one of the bulbs illuminating the rear number plate of the Peugeot 208 has blown, you must replace it as soon as possible for your safety and to avoid penalties. Open the tailgate and lift it to work easily.

Using a small flathead screwdriver, pry on the frame of the light and remove the transparent part. Still using the screwdriver, remove the old bulb entirely and replace it with a new one. Refit the transparent lens and before closing the tailgate, check that everything works correctly.
