Lift the boot lid and remove the round cover shown in the video, of course from the side of the affected light, using a small flat screwdriver. Unscrew the exposed bolt with a socket wrench and remove the plastic cover inside the boot lid, then unscrew the other now accessible bolt, disconnect the connector and remove the light.

As you can see, this is a very simple operation and within reach of everyone, even less experienced mechanics. For reassembly, just proceed in reverse and your Seat Leon will have a new rear light.
