How to remove the rear light bulb of a Smart Fortwo

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Tail light bulb

How do I remove the rear light bulb on a Smart Fortwo? Let's see the replacement of the damaged piece. We remove the plastic panel covering the rear light (trunk). Once the plastic cover has been removed, let's disconnect the lamp holders; we remove the bulbs placed in the metal lamp holder (back of the rear light). We replace damaged headlight bulbs (bulbs of the same size and voltage, better if quality). Finally we go to reassemble the lamp holder and close with the inspection cover of the headlight. Let's proceed to check the operation of the bulbs replaced previously.
