How to replace the rear license plate bulb on Seat Altea XL

Model: Seat Altea MK 1 - Years 2004-2015
Part: License plate light

In this video we can see how easily it is possible to replace the license plate light bulb on the Seat Altea XL. First of all you need to prepare all the material needed to do a correct job (a flat-tipped screwdriver, a screwdriver, a new bulb similar to the original one). At this point we go to the rear of the vehicle, where the luggage rack is located. We take the screwdriver, make ourselves comfortable to work at the height of the vehicle license plate (the lights are just above the license plate), unscrew the protective cover of the license plate light, remove the non-working bulb, mount the working one. We proceed to carry out all the steps backwards to reassemble all the parts. We turn on the vehicle to test the operation of the license plate lights.
