Replacing the number plate bulbs on a Skoda Octavia. In this video, we will see how to replace the damaged bulbs.

Open the boot lid and use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws of the plastic light fitting located in the rear hatch of the car. Once the light fitting is removed, pull out the holder with your fingers, then remove the bulb from it. Fit the new bulb (same size and voltage) into the holder, then refit the light fitting into the metal of the hatch.

Finally, test the correct operation of the previously fitted bulbs.
