To replace the rear headlight bulb, you need to remove the headlight: open the trunk and unscrew the mounting screws to detach the headlight from its housing; disconnect the connector by first sliding the lock, then unscrew the screws holding the bulb holder.

At this point, pull out the old bulbs and insert the new ones; then screw in the bulb holder screws and reinstall the headlight by reconnecting the connector and tightening the mounting screws; if you notice a difference in brightness compared to the other headlight, replace those bulbs as well.
