Replacing the rear light bulbs in the Subaru Outback is a very simple and quick operation. First, ensure the key is not in the ignition, then open the tailgate and locate the two screws on the inner edge of the light.

Next, unscrew them with a cross-head screwdriver, remove the plastic cover, and unscrew the two bolts underneath it using an 8 mm spanner. At this point, you can extract the light from the bodywork and proceed with replacing the faulty bulb.
