How do you remove the external and internal rear lights of the Seat Leon?

Model: Seat Leon MK 3, 5F - Years 2012-2019
Part: Tail light

It is not a difficult operation. For the external lights, open the trunk and look for the fixing screws inside the side lining. Use an Allen key or a screwdriver to unscrew them and lever to release the headlight from the fasteners. Before removing it, disconnect the electrical connector. For the internal lights (on the tailgate), open the plastic cover inside, unscrew the fixing nut and disconnect the cables. Once everything is removed, you can replace or repair the lights. Reassemble following the reverse steps, making sure the lights are securely fastened. If you do not feel confident to proceed on your own, contact an expert.
